Prayers need for my truck

I have quietly been working on a build for my truck..Its a e99 motor for my 03..The machine shop says it will be finished next week...So the heart transplant starts Tuesday...Here is what we have done, block is 10ths over stock (didn't want to go any more than had to)of coarse forged rods,balanced rotating assy,ARP studs,Comp springs,complete head overhaul,porting,all new valves,guides,ect....Terminator dual HPOP,Full Force stage 2HO injectors,38R turbo..The exhaust manifolds,up-pipes,turbo will be ceramic coated, the inter-cooler tubes,valve covers will be powder coated... So everyone cross their fingers and send a prayer that all works out during the surgery...

AS usual-----Thank-You Clay @ Riffraff for all your help....

Keep us posted, and pictures, like them. Also let us know how you like the extra power and if it was worth it. I'd like to feel that also.

Man, that's gonna be nice. I'm thinking about Stage 1's for next summer, especially since my originals have 196,000 on them. What did you think of the 1's?

The fuel economy of the stage 1's rocks. You will love them.
