Thanks buddy! As long as it's fun to drive, I'm all in lol
This one is a reflexxion... Had a little more "stock" feel to it.
Yes sir. Sticking with the 66/88 max power x's.
I forgot to mention that I am buying a set of 150's from mr. Haller.

steel is sooooo heavy.... LOL mine weigh's 55lbs according to cervini's but they are supposed to the be one of the best fitting. and it lines up very well. close to stock in all aspects except it's a 1/32nd higher then the fenders but whatever. pisses me off but I'll get over it eventually. close enough. I saw a steel cowl hood on a duramax, and it was wayyyy off like 1/4" gaps....Owner of the body shop who does my paint work has a steel cowl hood on his and it fits perfect and looks badass. so hopefully you talked to a few people who have used reflexxion cowl hoods before.

surprised no one mentioned going hoodless. so much more room for activities. hoods are overrated.

I've seen reflexxions and cervinis in person... Both fit well. If it doesn't fit it won't stay. Lol

I've done several 6.0's and a 6.4 with reflexxions cowls, and the fit is great.

You and me both.
Oh and I'm curious what everyone's thoughts are on a cowl hood on my truck....
The same as this one (only cleaner LOL)
Judging from the dust, I'm guessing the shorty's still on the back burner??? Kinda sad thinking such a nice truck is down long-term. Makes sense I guess as most mechanics are too burned out to have any desire to work on their own stuff after the work day. Any word on when it'll be going again? BTW, I'm pumped for ya. I've felt your urgency too of having such a nice truck that doesn't run. (well, mine's not nearly that nice at 208000 miles LOL I love the way your hood looks. Here's a non-dusty pic while the paint work was in process. Perspective for the doubters of a cowl hood on a lowered truck.

Here's my truck with a cowl hood. I love the look. Gunna be lifting my truck Tuesday. and it functional, today I got out of the truck did what everyone does while walking away from their truck, look back at it, and I noticed I could see the heat coming out of the vents on it. So does help with air moving through the engine bay

Deez nuts? Nah I'll text one to you.
The machine shop won't have the motor balanced until Tuesday I guess, so depending on how the week goes, it may be very productive. I'm excited.
And Nathannial....
