Thanks Tim. I have 42# injectors right now, but I need to get my hands on some 60's which I think will do the trick. I've been meaning to ask you about the fuel pump... Did you run your stock fuel pump for a while? What would be my best bet to upgrade to?

Yea that truck fell through... I got rear ended right as it was about to happen and the dealership was pretty set on making a deal BEFORE the end of the year. It was nothing major and I have the truck back already, but I was pretty bummed when it happened. Definitely worked out for the better I think... never would have had a Harley running 11's.

Have you got ahold of a NVG input shaft yet? Is the trans stock (80e) or are you going to do anything to it?

I havent gotten ahold of it yet, no. High on the list of things I need. I will be ordering it as soon as the heads sell. As of right now its a stock 80e, but I am putting in a transgo HD-2 kit before it goes in the truck... forgot to add that to the original post, I'll change that now.

the heat exchanger looks like it's for a newer truck.

the kit is technically for a newer truck... so you could be right. I'm sure I can figure something out though! Pat was it hard, or did it take anything special to get it to fit right?

I made my own brackets for it. It actually worked out very nice, it fits well and I mounted it in front of my trans cooler. Let me see if I have any pics.

Lower Mounts, I added rubber for it to sit on. It just sits in the lower mounts and the top mount bolts to it.

Lower mounts are 1/4 x 1" Alum stock and the top is all 1/8 x 1" Once its in place it does not move at all.
