Gonna look great man! Can't wait to see it all together.

You and me both! Since all the new changes are being done without me around or doing any of them, it will be pretty cool seeing it for the first time.

no project is done... trust me LOL


Erik im hoping to do this grill this weekend, been a long week at work, was out of town 3 of the 5 days so i havent had time to put color on the grill. But it will get done dont worry.

Ohh I am well aware that a project is never done. Always something that you want to do or tweak. I am not worried....yet. :lookaround: It is gonna be seeing a new truck with all the little things done to it. Can't wait.

Here is the latest shot of it pretty much all together. Not running the new intake cause the bolt holes don't line up. Not waiting for a new one, so the old one is going back on.

A few longer bolts needed to be used for it to work on mine, but it lined up fine. I wonder what made this one so different?

tadd said there was a possibility the material could have changed shape under welding heat because the manifold is so thin and lacking material. other than that he is kinda wondering himself.

We got the whole intake thing worked out last night. Elite is going to swap mine out for me when I blow through town after picking my truck up from Hallers.

The Army has a great bunch of guys in it for sure. Mike has really helped me out in spots and I really appreciate it.
