James, in that second pic, is it just the view of the picture or is that hose/clamp/boot in the center-bottom of the picture much larger than the metal pipe??? looks that way to me from the picture.

4" pipe 4" boot, looks like the pipe is gonna fall in the hole huh! it lines up very nicely. In other words i didn't use the boots as alignment band aids!

Wierd... naw it fits fine.

congrats man its got to feel good after all this time .:)

scary but good... 12 or 14 months into this thing, to much money, to much time, stress heartache, BS, delays etc etc.

If it breaks before it runs hard... it'll be burned in Mexico.:rofl:

WOW! She looks good ! Finished up late on Wednesday. Arrived at 5??am and departed at about 10pm. I'll get some picts Friday night or Saturday morning for the picture hounds. :) I know, I know but i couldn't see straight. :)

The truck sits exactly as i wanted! got the excessive oil pressure solved for the time being. I want to fix it for good with a different larger filter mount and two of the Fram HP filters.

The oil pressure was so high it took a good filter and caved it in like a Pepsi can, 1800 rpm +/- pegged the guage with 15-40 at about 160*. Squirters are surely always on at 90 PSI right?

Fixed all of it and hope to reinstall filters/lines/fittings Friday.

The engine compartment looks AUSUM, like nothing I've ever seen.:D

No restrictions, #12 lines throughout, big housings, good filters, not the best but good.

IMO- 150* +/- oil temp with (1) shim in, 15-40 weight, stout hi volume pump and 1800 rpm.... killed the filter. Upon further investigation it collapsed the filter then spit the o ring out.

More work to do here, but I'm driven her Saturday.... all of 4 blocks over to exhaust.:rofl:
