That is what I figured but I didn't want to guess and be wrong. How many do you use? I need to do mine when I pull my camper.

15. if you add more than that, the balance gets thrown off. also, make sure they are used ones from little kids, they stick on there better. Just dont let their mom and/or dad see you chasing after their kid for the popsicle stick. for some reason that is frowned upon here, may be different in your state though :D

I think I saw some in dads van the other day when I was looking for a crescent wrench, they were probably mine or my brothers from when we were kids. He doesn't throw anything away, he was a hoarder before hoarding became cool. Thanks!

Just finished my Heavy duty front bumper installation with 12k winch. Added about 300lbs to the frontend of my truck. I have noticed slightly higher trans temp due to the blocked access area of the cooler.

I know the center grill piece needs redone. I will get it when I color match bumpers and mirror.

HTT ships stuff fast, ordered Thursday and got it Saturday. Hopefully the FMW is as good as the aftermarket wheels.

It's a take off cover and wheel from the new SX-E S366 going on my old S366. I wanted a S369, but they didn't have them. Hopefully some day a pair of S363 will make up for that:spit:. Currently I am working that getting the engine bay ready for it, moving both batteries, coolant tank, ecm/TCM and reworking/looming the hole wiring harness. As well as cleaning up the engine bay. Hopefully all the work will pay off.

Looks like your getting there. Made a lot of space. Hard work always pays. I need to make the time to do the same. I need to relocate also.

Whatd you end up getting?
Just the SX-E cover and wheel from this 66, I was going to wait and see how the turbine housing works out for you before get that and hopefully the new turbine wheel. I was on the fence about getting a Danville billet wheel as a upgraded, but this was cheaper and the cover is supposed flow a lot more. Do you know how long the exhaust flange is on the new housing your getting? I have seen some that it's like 3 or 4 inch's before between the housing and the flange. Thats made me a little nervous with where the exhaust pedestal is.

No I don't know, but I'll measure for you. I know it's getting machined to use an hx40 down pipe, so hopefully the one I have will fit.
