NOT a direct fit. I may end up modifying both the bumper AND the valance before it fits how I want.

First of all, I do NOT take credit for that find! I stole that idea from an old forum member (not sure if he was here or not) by the name of WHATABUDRO. Credit where it's due. Also, the fit isn't perfect, I still need to mess with it some. That's a Job 2 front air dam from a 2008 6.4L.

If you have a drone in the cab and want to get rid of it, this will do it!

Finally got the exhaust finished, wheels and tires mounted and after sitting for months...a really good inside and out cleaning! It's nice to be driving my truck again, and not the shop van. Still lots more on the "to do" list. Little comparison of progress from where the truck started...

Lining up the seams was the easy way to make sure that the 2 pieces I separated got lined back up the way they were before I cut them. I wanted the pipe to have the same angles, and just have more travel over the axle. Working on getting the tip back in the same location, sucks I had to cut up...

Typical of every truck I own, modify one thing and you have to mess with something else. Every lowered truck I've had required exhaust work to make sure I didn't listen to the axle banging the pipe, or pipe scraping speed bumps, etc. This one is no different. I've loved the fit and finish of...

I think I had the license plate figured out before I even found the truck. LOL

LOL. Valve covers merge, then catch can, then to the intake. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Closed loop crankcase vent is done. Used a DRIVERS SIDE valve cover on the passenger side, with the vent assembly facing the rear. Used an E-Series van drivers side valve cover on the drivers side, but had to cut and significantly shorten the oil fill tube. Both vents merge into a single 3/4"...

FFD Rail System

Since we were brought up, I will reply. Our testing was inconclusive. Unfortunately our test truck probably wasn't the right candidate. We don't have a dyno so our thought was to test on the track and look at ETs and Trap Speeds. Unfortunately, the truck we had available to test with is just...

Competition 7.3L Compound Turbo Kit

Waaaaayyyyyyyyy too much for what I'm building now. The KASB high pressure turbo might have worked, but I'm keeping this build "simple". I've got another toy if I want to go stupid fast.

THANKS! I will reach out. I may be open to that, but the vented seats was something I was hoping for due to being in AZ. Thanks...and I know what you mean and I'm glad this was a TX truck for sure! Yup! Thanks...me too! Will do, thanks!

Thanks All! I wish it was just a round hole. Big square(ish) hole, like 12" x 12". I'm on the hunt for a bed, but that is proving to be more difficult than I had hoped. 475-500ish. This truck will be a "fun daily driver" that can still tow. I want a truck that's great on a highway road...

It's in my plans to do an engine build, but I don't have time for that right now. I just needed to get the engine running good enough to daily drive and clean up some stuff I didn't care for. Of course, like everything, I could have done just what was "needed", but that's now how my stupid...

I wasn't ready to pull the cab, so the front of the truck wasn't getting the "clean and paint" level of work that the back did. At some point the cab will come off so I can do the engine, and the rest of the frame. For now, the front just got the suspension and I had to fight my OCD every step...
