if you're looking for some nice trick stuff, check out a hydro-booster... it'll get rid of the vacuum brake booster, and free up a lot of space on your firewall. it's pretty cool, you may need to upgrade the power steering unit, but stock PSP suck anyway.

lol.

sounds sick bro! post up some pics when you start, i have TONS of pics of this thing.
I won't be touching the dash area for a while... probably next winter. But here's the build thread for the rest of the truck so far. I was planning to use the stock dash, but it got crushed by the frame last month... so might as well go vintage. Its what I always wanted in it anyways.

Just noticed this today, pretty bad ass man. Is that rear suspension the way it's been, or is it something you've been working on? You get your 5.0L in yet?
