1. Set of Bridgestone Dueler RVT tires on 16" rims
2. ZF5 manual transmission and all parts to install it
3. New gears for the 9" axle (running 2.75s now, not sure what I'd run with the ZF5)
4. An all-new exhaust system (true dual 2 1/4 or 2.5" from headers back to a single Flowmaster, single 3" out)
5. The rest of the black interior parts I need to finish my red and black interior
6. A new paint job, red and black


I hear Santa takes his reindeer to Bridgestone to get 'em retreaded every couple years.... lol

I love the idea of getting help from elves, that would be freakin awesome for some of the work we do on our trucks!

Personally, all I would like is a set of heads for my 400 (she burns oil real bad on startup) which I assume is from leaky valve guide seals...

No, the hoods are different. The 94 hood is a little more rounded.
