wish i would have done more black on mine next motor will be powder coated all over looks good man she'll haul a$$ an look good doing it :thumb:
Thanks guys. Rick did the headers, up-pipes, and powdercoating. It's shame that with everything bolted on and all of the wiring alot is covered up. I spent a few hours re-looming and trimming the factory harness but it is still a rats nest.
Merchant's motor mounts are built like a tank. They should hold very well.

Looks very clean man. What are you doing on the turbo end of things? I see the wastgate in the pedestal I am just curious
My "plan" is to run a 2.6 Precision single in the Super Stock race and then swap over to a decent sized set of twins. We will see how all that plays out - I just want to have it up and running consistent.
There is a spool-up valve sitting between the turbo and the pedistal right now (wastegate actuated valve covering one side of the plenum).
Thanks. Got the QA1 idea from Jeff but had to work through several different shock lengths and multiple sets of springs/spring rates to find one suited for 2wd.
Spool up valve is made by SoundPerformance and I know of one DMax that is successfully using it to spool a large charger. I saw/talked to BD at SEMA - they also have a spool valve. It is big and made really well but it would likely be to large to use on most pedistal/turbo combinations in the valley. I haven't figured out the best fitment yet on mine either (too many things in the way).

I always enjoy seeing the qaulity work you do to your truck. It looks sooo good and gets me thinking.
Thanks. And I have had lots of help - I only wish I could fabricate. I am definitely not afraid to try something new though.
