Yes. I guess it's time for an update. Almost done with it . All I lack are minor interior trim pieces put on , front end alignment , putting the mirrors on , installing a catch can and road testing it . Had it dynoed and made 547/615 at the wheels. That's with 3" zr1 mufflers/exhaust and no cats.

Extremely cool truck. Looks to be factory-like quality and attention to detail

Great job on the build! It is very clean and factory looking. I know what you mean on the build time. I am at 1.5 years and still going. Only a few months left for me though (without doing all the body work). Can't wait to see some videos of it!
