You have been very busy Pete. You must not believe in doing things one at a time! Looks great and a very clean job. Tried to rep you on a good job but.....

Very nice Pete! Great work buddy! Where did you get your injectors? I just read on another thread that the AC code injectors are same as stage I. The e-fuel looks great! That's something I'd like to do. I'll be happy just to get my gauges for now though! LOL!!

Everything looks good.....the whole truck looks good!

Very nice work Pete! You have been very busy for sure! I'm slow like that in the winter time when I work on mine also. When its not you DD, you can do that..

How's it run now? Probably like a new truck, huh? Got enough umph to hang with your 6.0 now?

I tried to rep ya also, but you know the story..

The injectors are new from Alliant purchased through Farmer's Diesel and Performance. Strictly Diesel sells it's in house built stuff under the Driven Diesel moniker. I haven't driven it allot but its pretty peppy. Power wise it is probably the 6.0's equal. Which was the goal.

The truck looks amazing. Well done sir, very well done indeed!
