What an idiot...
I miss having a hand-shaker anyways, plus my parts truck is a 4x4 so I can steal the t-case and everything else and make it 4x4. I really should have waited and bought a truck set up the way I wanted it from the beginning, but got a good deal on this one.

My dad had a '96 F250 PSD that was Red with the white stripe. Loved how it looked. Mine was white with a blue stripe but the paint was in bad shape, so when I painted the new bed I got for the SRW conversion I decided to go with red. Love it!
Really like the all black trucks like yours too. They look mean.
So when you get your Stage III's (you know you want them) I think you should send that D66 my way. haha

Look into the hybrids man, less oil to run them, and they'll run with lower tunes really well for towing and lots of power when you put bigger tunes on and when you can upgrade your fuel and turbo

If you want to stick with the D66 then go with II's.
If you want to eventually upgrade your turbo I'd look into the T4 mount kit, check out the thread Murff Racing T4 Mount that Travis put up. The mount kit is cheaper and turbos for that are cheaper than the H2E stuff.
I'm torn with mine. Originally I was planning on II's and a D66 or QSSB from Wide Open Performance. I still like the sound of the QSSB, you can put down about 450hp with those and the right injectors.
Or I can go wild and get the T4 mount and hybrids...

Mind my asking how much you got the donor for? want to convert to a Manual but am also looking for a complete A/C system and some bucket seats with center console. Have the bench now, but is very uncomfortable on any trip longer than 2+ hrs

I might use the engine and body for a offroad toy still, probably put a C6 in it though.
