Good Evening all,

Yep it's late and I owe everyone and Update.
I'm almost finished with the basement so soon I'll be back to regular updates.

Guy at Rockford Racecraft took care of having the Intake Hat extended all the way back.



The goal is to hide the plumbing from view without making an engine cover.



Man is the polisher going to have fun with this. Should look really nice once it's done.



I almost forgot - I really should post some painted truck pictures

You're finishing your basement too! Now your pissing me off. LOL I am doing my basement as well, and it seems I have no time for anything else. Where can I get one of those watches with 30 hours in a day? The trucks looking great, let's see some paint!

hey marty.. i just saw this on and immediately thought of you. its a cheap upgrade worth thinking about for your ride... http://www.turbomalibu.com/ click the "dual fuel system". its alittle redneck engineering but its sooo simple and automatically switches from 89 or 93 octane to 116 octan under boost

http://www.turbomalibu.com/videos/dualdemo1.WMV

since the injectors are pull to ground both sets are wired to the ecm, and the power is switched from one set of incjetors to another.. allowing higher boost... (remember to turn on the 116 octane fuelpump at a lower boost setting;-) ) just somthing to considder

you could even run methanol on the second set, just by running proportionately larger injectors and adjusting fuelpressure so both fuelsystems deliver furl coresponding o the oxygen in the chamber... the same map should work for both...


sorry for the sidetrack... now for some paint pictures please
