of coarse, it just wouldnt be the same without ya... i think you need to see the maiden run..... the only thing we're on hold now is the gas fill, steering column thing, and a radio..:p

Dude I love that built that thing in your driveway. Very impressive. You live in a similar neighbourhood to mine but my HOA would have sent my *** to jail already if I did what you did. LOL!

just got back from about a 700mi round trip to get the trucks puter edited...the pics are of killer being loaded ,the new exhaust, P/S lines fabed up,and arriving safely in OKC at Glen (crazy last name) ------------ski house... these pics are just things being edited in the pcm, like disable VATS, EVAP, rear o2's, speed limiter, shift points, shift firmness, idle speed, etc .........
i thought i would try my hand at dirrecting and make a vid..... and this is really the first attempt....as seen it just cranked a few time and ran.... i still have some tweeking to do before any dyno run, and finish the fuel fill, but all in all the truck is mobile...

Sounds great, what mufflers did you run?

Any results from the dyno?

This is one of my favorite builds, great work.

Amazing clean and detailed work. This is the way all swaps should be done.

That's also my favorite year model. Maybe I'll see it around town?
