Well not much going on with the cummins build.. taught my truck how to roller-skate this morning and tore up the bed...

But on a positive note.. I found a guy to cut me a billet aluminum oil cap. It will have the King Ranch "W" on top.

Who wants a 6061 machined billet oil cap?

Pretty cheap and he can make any design you can dream up!

Enjoy!

 

those oil caps are sick! I'm gonna have to get one of those!!! Thanks for the link Andrew.

 

No prob. I talked with the owner. He can do anything. I asked about copyright issues. He said he does not have any issues with making anything as long as he is not mass producing them.

I am gonna have him make me a billet valve cover for my cummins

 

I just ordered a personallized plate for my truck that says "JOESPSD"...I want that with a 7.3 in the middle on the cap. what you think? cheesy or no? sorry for hi-jak....lol

 

That would be cool.. Get what makes you happy. I am getting trash talk from a few of my 7.3 buddies about my cummins convo.. I could care less.. but then again my nickname somehow became "pretty pretty princess".. maybe i'm just unique haha

 

Great point bro. I had heard that was your nickname?! Lmao. I think the Cummins convo is a cool build personally I wouldn't even consider putting another 6 leaker in that beautiful truck. I'm gonna call Newly in the morning. Have a good nite Andrew. I'm headed to bed.

 

Those are pretty sweet lookin caps. Anything to add a few extra HP's!!

Which truck did you hurt? Hopefully not the big dually? If it's the old, tired, wore out '02, I know a place you can get ride of it...

 

The 02 hit the ditch. It had rust bubbling on the wheel well so it needed body work anyways.

You after every truck I got?! I could never sell my blue!! It's my original. One day it will go to beans and get a cummins convo when the 7.3 goes.

 

Just anything with 4 doors and 4x4. You can keep your 6.4L, I'm not a fan of training wheels. My son will need them someday...

Hopefully you can find a bed and get it fixed up. I haven't had time to work on mine since the front end got rearranged. I hate driving around with things all bent up.

 

Look'n good Buddy! I'm going to have to make a trip over and check things out.Whens the next mod party???

 

Mod party will be when it's nice and warm out! Some time this spring hopefully. Just got some new lights I snagged out of a switch house I demo'd in OK. Got some wicked light now!

Got some more parts in over the holidays... Traded a 66mm turbo for these..

Helix 2 Cam


F1 Valve Springs


And I got a wiring diagram from Autoworld. The wiring of the engine is not really that bad..


Enjoy!

Once work picks up I will get my convo parts and my compound turbos ready. Then save for the BTS.. I hope to have the engine pulled apart this spring and pretty much rebuilt.

 

Slow day at work. Skid steer is broken. Waiting on the new year to get cranking. So I get time to play with my truck.

Cleaned and ground smooth


Painted


Paint I used.


Also. If the paint can appears upside down it is not my picture taking abilities. Your monitor is upside down.

Enjoy!!

 

Its looking better and better everyday. Nice work Andrew!

 

So when are you gonna pull the cab and box to finish painting the frame?

I hate it when I do things like that, clean and paint a part up, and then it makes the rest of the truck look bad so I gotta go through and paint the rest of it up.

 

Looking forward to the end result.
