Some fitment test pics.

Is that a 2000lb engine stand from princess auto? If so how do you find it? I bought one for my 7.3 but haven't used it yet.

Jordan will have to comment on that. All I know is he had to make it stronger.

If it is the same one, and he had to make it stronger, I wouldn't mind some details on that either. Might save me some hassle. LOL

Yeah, that's a PA stand. It works alright, very hard to rotate with a powerstroke on there. It works for a cummins a lot better, but you can mount them sideways on there. All i did was build a brace on the front and weld a post on so that there isn't as much stress on the rear. That engine is worth too much to hit the floor! Good for the basic block, but once the heads are on and getting torqued up i was scared for it's life.

My 6.4 has been on the stand complete for 5 months with no issues.

So sick, I can't wait to see this beast once it is dialed in and tuned. Keep the pics coming!!!

our Canadian winters are long and that gives you enough time to get this thing running perfect. Made in Canada !!!!!

Looking good! You've gotta be chomping at the bit. The 90 coming out of the drivers side manifold looks a little tight though, imo. Not trying to insult so don't take it that way, just my opinion.

We don't have a lot of wiggle room with 2.5" piping, so it had to stay as close to the head as possible. It's still a clean bend, and with that size pipe i'm not worried about it at all.
