    Cool man glad ya like it! Yes I am using the stock truck pan and when aired out it will clear the ground by about a 1/2 inch. I wasn't planning on swapping out the intake manifold at first but found a killer price on a manifold setup so I couldn't pass it up. As far as running the truck intake with stock hood with a bodydrop I've seen it done but it was so close he couldn't run a intake manifold vortec cover so you had to look at that ugly manifold. So it can be done but your prob better off searching for a good deal on a car manifold, it will make your life way easier! Also spend the money on the full adjust Dirty Dingo mounts! They are freakin' awesome! It will allow you to use your stock driveshaft if you want which is great, also you can place the motor wherever you want it.

    Thanks! I did assume the cover would have to go so I took care of the ugliness.

    I actually thought about fabricating my own brackets so I can get the pan as low as I can. But I have seen the dingo mounts and they aren't overpriced like some others so thanks for the heads up!
    I was thinking of swapping out the pan but if it worked for you ill give it a shot before I invest in a new pan.
    Thanks again.
