    Thanks guys

    I have been using the trucks on this forum for inspiration, will try to fire it up this week. I am getting the a/c lines crimped this morning and hope to have the exhaust back on tomorrow.

    I changed the injectors to 60lb and do not know how to change the setting in HP tuners. I am afraid i will foul my plugs on start up.

    Post up in the proper forum, I am sure people can tell you what to do (I can't!).

    looks great! what are you going to do about the intake and charge pipe connecting? seems like it will be somewhat tight

    almost done

    I got the exhaust, turbo, waste gate all tight. Made the intercooler pipe and I will work on some type of crankcase vent tomorrow and maybe start it up!
