Jack, I'm custom fabbing an intake spider. No SD stuff. Wait till you see it, you'll trip.

K, these next pics. Motor on the hoist ready to go it. Next, we encounter our first problem. Steering shaft won't clear the headers......MODIFY!!!!

Didn't get pics of the firewall behind the turbo, but it required some serious massaging as well to clear the turbo.

So this is how we finished wed night. Carl and I had been up 31 plus hours. It was time to call it a night. We had worked our night shift the night before.

Today we got the front all buttoned up. Stopped for about 3 hours to ROB a clutch out of Rockee and put a single disk back in him. Dan at Valair had problems with my flywheel and we couldn't get them resolved in time. But not to worry, I'll have the real clutch shortly for it. It wasn't his fault.

And not in the pics, we got the tranny all ready for the new clutch, and got the dually bed reassembled with all it's new paint. To it's ready to drop on as soon as we get everything buttoned up tomorrow. Keep your fingers crossed guys, this one will be a nail biter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bad, my weight bracket is going to be a 5 1/2' wide Ford oval cut out of 1" plate. and I will hang tractor weights behind it. There is no time to build it for this event Sat. But it will be on there shortly. Not to mention, I just wanna see how the truck is gonna act. We'll start adding weight and traction after that.

Thanks Ross, I appreciate it man.
