Vinny is even attempting to instill some intelligence into them there fine folks at DF. Full time job in and of itself.

Who you calling old, old man??

It's funny going back to all of the other forums now not knowing anyone and finding all of the new experts, learning that I know nothing.

Hey.....I get my black balloon party this year (50), but I am NOT using a walker yet. :roflmao:

Are you going to run a 4 link out back, Brian? If so, are you going to run it inside the frame rails, and which kit or parts would you use?

Now waiting on downpipe clamp, and Merchant upper coolant hard pipe stock turbo delete to clear the 5" intake. I had to dent the intake tube to fit, and Merchant is only $50..



Couple issues that I ran into.. It's impossible to put the turbine housing in the truck with the pedestal and studs..., so had to remove, drain line kicked my ass, as well as smashing my finger on the up pipes after breaking my 3/8 ratchet :mad:


Everything is ready to run tomorrow morning, gotta prefill oil lines/turbo and get ready for soot all over the firewall :woott:

Looks killer Bri...

Don't feel bad about your arms, my hands ALWAYS look like I got in a fight with a barbed wire fence. Stupid zip ties, they are sharper than a razor blade if cut improperly...
