Just thought i'd share some pics of my DSII swap. I'm running the holley 2300 350cfm, Duraspark control module, and an accel coil. Please excuse the dirty engine, i've been wanting to wash down the engine compartment ever since i purchased the truck but I was affraid I would short something out with all the wires that used to be in there...I'm not gonna have that problem now :D Since the swap my city/hwy mileage has gone from 19 mpg to 22mpg...I'm hoping with new plugs and bigger wires my mileage might increase...

Good work,if i would make one suggestion,get the valve cover breather into the air filter somehow so the engine breathes right.Congrats on better mileage,what jets are you running?
