SCT was a blast. Boosted6 had a crazy weekend haha. Picked up some parts while i was there. should help with the 60 foot.
Picked up some flares. looks killer
Caltracs and split monons and some sliders
Should have the silders all lined up and welded in. Think the ride height will be about what it was but will see once i get all the weight on it.

not alot going on. did get the rear sliders welded in, drive shaft speed sensor wired up and tested, ordered front tires, and rear drive shaft. Going with Viking shocks for the rear..
speed sensor wired up with resistor
Also got the temporary dash installed. my buddy had a decently clean one and paid 40 bucks for it. through on some dupli color dash paint. looks decent.
its basically just the shell
patiently waiting for front tries so can push it outside for the first time in months and clean the garage.
should have tires this week. not sure on drive shaft. Need to move the fuel line thats next to the slider. before it cleared shackle no problem but with that bolt there i am going to have to do some thing different. Hopefully have the glass in this week also.

Welded studs to it to secure fan
Done just needs wired.

Heard these leak so added a little RTV
sn95 street brakes
Boost control is done. added the charge lines
ordered some more exhuast tubing and muffler. sounds good with just the added 2'

Bro I love your dashboard with the relays and the barrier strips. Very clean and accessable. Tons of room in that engine bay for a turbo setup, it's like therapy for me to look at it.
My next project will def either be an S10 or a Blazer. What I love about the blazer it all the people you can fit in it, and still go out and smoke *****

so after burning up one alt already i think i should ask some questions. im using a 1 wire 105 truck alt with Holley 1 wire adapter for the plug. i have it going to my Ron Francis and turns on when ignition is on. do i need a resistor or some thing inline or was it just a fluke it failed.
