Hey, just outta curiosity... how many thousands of dollars do you have wrapped up in this project?

That doesn't look cheap at all. Is it causing marital problems?

Thee are some questions you don't want to know the answer to. How much is one of them. Little here, little there. My wife is awesome, and makes more than I do, so she could care less, as long as I keep it in perspective and remember I have a family too.

Enough said. But I do need to find me a woman like that. My truck has lost me 4 girlfriends in the last 2 years...

Damn, man. Do you attract the clingy kind that need all your attention or do you put alot of time into your truck?.....how much time do you put into your truck...?

Did a lot more today, 13 hours worth. All the gauges are ready to go in tomorrow, and as you know, I have had a hell of a time with the Brakes being manual, and I had to change the pedal ratio. I said, "Screw manual brakes" today. I will be cleaning up the hydroboost tomorrow, and finishing the install.

Also, hated the snake pit that was the brake lines. I tried to use the stokers. Notice in the pic above, and below, I made new lines today. OK, ok, I will admit it, I am anal. LOL

This truck couldn't get any more perfect if you tried.

I finished the Hydroboost install today. Had to get some custom lines made, but other than running around chasing fittings down, it works like a champ. I no longer have a brake problem, unless getting thrown through the dash is a problem. I had to remove the oil filter, and will have to find a new place for it. I will clean up all the wires and cables, but you can see I moved the FICM, and now you can see the valve cover very well.

Also installed the gauges, TS MPD and the SCT livewire. It looks killer IMHO. And yes, I know there are two missing. Apparently someone got into my garage and wanted two EGT gauges, cause they are gone. That will be remedied tomorrow.

9 cans of spray foam later, and the hood is covered. Now to sand it to shape and use the foam as a mold for the scoop to be glassed. Looks like a bunch of yellow crap. LOL
