Started tearing down my 2011 6.7L in August figured I would share the build with everybody. It is coming together nicely and should be back running shortly. Seems like 6.7L builds are becoming more and more popular. Truck is a getting a SPE Stage 2 Long Block, ATS Transmission and Converter, SPE Compound kit and some other goodies

Awesome! Dual fuelers? And what size turbos?

Gonna follow this for sure, all these 6.7 builds are getting me excited!

It will have dual fuelers either H&S or SPE not sure yet. Turbos will probably be a 63 and either 78 or 80 the truck is a daily driver and hauls my enclosed car trailer and flatbed so I want something that spools quick.

Took about 5 hours to get it in the air this was the first one I did. Just a few more harnesses than a 6.4 or 6.0 but overall not bad

Looks good man.... But why did you go with glow shift gauges may I ask. I have had a few friends run them and not have great luck with them.

I was going to go with Isspro but they didn't make all the gauges I wanted so I had some CustomShop Autometers made up 8-10 weeks out Glowshifts are temporary for now.

Putting the escort in wasn't bad at all kit comes with everything to flush mount the led screen and control is pretty much up to you just have a drill a hole big enough to fit a phone jack through. The hardest part was finding a good spot for the comm. Box and speaker with everything going on under the new dashes. It ended up on the passenger side near the fuse box

My brother did the change color effect in his '04 didn't work out so well the buttons break and needles fall off. I haven't had any luck with them either.

If you look at the picture of the rear bumper you'll see the rear sensor on the license plate. The front sensors are mounted to the bumper on my truck I'll get a picture. I have a T-Rex grille on the truck so I couldn't mounted them there but I did another 2011 and mounted them right to the grille surround.
