Good to hear. You should put it in the Truck show if you don't want to dyno. You have some really unique and interesting mods. Looking forward to seeing the CT gang again. You'll be able to see a cut away of your motor this time too!

Well guys, got the rear parking brake cables replaced, was much easier than anticipate, however, I didn't realize before, where my parking brake lever mounts to on the metal support under the dash, is broken! Looks like it was intentionally cut in half, so when you push the lever down, it allows that park to come down as well, not keeping proper pressure on the cable so the parking brake barely works. Looks like I'll be making a trip to the junk yard at some point!
