Ah I did not know that, thanks Dave! I will have to go see if they still make it and then pop the pillar back off and repaint.

looks good Matt, for the P/N safety I used the P/N wire (ground when in these positions) off the trans harness and ran it to a relay for the starter circuit

Thanks! and ok great that should work then!
yeah Im sure youll see it soon!
Hopefully I'll stop seeing it several times a week soon! LOL
oke:
LOL yeah hopefully, just got my 97 wiring harness in today and its got everything I need, even grid heater wiring so im in business now!
Alright a little more progress. Lower radiator hoses are a pain to make on these but I got that done today, its not pretty but Im gonna try and get parts to make a much nicer one and run this hose temporarily.
I need to go tomorrow and buy more bends for my IC pipes and downpipe. Most of what I spent my time on today was the transmission wiring. I got the harness all taken apart and labeled and started removing all the unneeded wires. Im gonna also run the Fuel shutoff solenoid and grid heaters off the dodge PCM as well.
Here are a couple pictures:
More wiring mess
Almost everything routed
Shiny voltage regulator
No more 6.0 badges
Coming back together
Better quality shot of the factory matched gauges

Thanks Julian! Gotta do the best I can since it is a FumminGs LOL
More progress: Spent all day today making all my piping. IC pipes and downpipe are all tacked up. Now Im not a fabricator by any means so its not perfect. These took a lot longer to make than I expected. Now Im just gonna have a friend weld them up for me as I really dont have much experience with a MIG. Here are some pictures of them all mocked up though. The passenger side IC pipe was a pain since I had to wrap it up in a U shape to run the intake under it.
For the downpipe I made it a 2 piece and it also clears the stock dodge trans dipstick as well. I will be able to pull the top piece off and out of the truck from under the hood so itll be easy to get out of there if need be. I also decided to paint match my mirror caps as well today.

The mirror caps really add to it! Now it just needs some cab lights and you will be good to go.

Looking good. I'm ready to see it out that shop
thanks! and me too! My friend finished welding my piping for me this morning before I headed home to chicago for the week. Should hopefully be just a couple more days when I get back before I can pull it out the shop!
