If they haven't been to Destin before, I can say more, as I am sure others here can. Don't want to tell folks things they already know.

We stayed there twice. It's nice, I guess I just like trees and greenery too much.

Where did you get the boots?
I got them from a truck supply store. I had Spectre boots and they cracked and would never stay on. these are a little big but work really well.

Yeah I thought of that too but I fixed my intake hat that came from factory with some metal epoxy so that the boot would seal. So far it is working and was cheap. Im about to order an r&d 90 and new injectors with a ww2 to help make it pull better.

All this IDI talk makes me miss mine greatly. Intercooler was the only thing I didn't get to before I sold it. It did go to a good home and I have visiting rights.
And to stay on track this is it when I picked up our Wildcat.

Sounds like a plan. I would love to get a 110 pump, head studs and a cam.... Takes money though.

Thanks. It ran even better than it looked thanks to the Sidewinder, 4.56r&p, and overdrive unit. Then I got my 6.0. Here's a little before and after.

It faired just as well as the 6.0L. It went everywhere the 6.0 has with the same efforts and speeds. Actually I remember the first 8% grade in PA that we hit going out there, and saying to my wife it preformed just like the old truck. It ran really well.
One more set from Hamburg, PA.



This was the engine bay. I kept it clean.

And one last pic of a 5er on a side job.
