337 hp doesn't sound like much, but at the rear wheels, in that truck with the new frame. Would love to watch it run 1/4 mile.

lol over 4x the stock power sounds like quite a bit to me :p
i am only shooting for around 300hp/350tq from mine when finished :oops:

but i do agree you need to get that thing down to the strip and see what kind of times it puts down

New knock sensors and harness

All back together with a fixed orifice PCV and a vented oil cap.

Didn't like the breather being chrome so I painted it black.

I'm not taking mine to the strip until I drive it around for a while. Making sure the brakes work without pulling to either side, saw the Yellow Luv wreck because of that, radiator hoses are tight, Camaro into the wall on that one. I'm a believer Safety First.

Redoing the halo and a-pillar bars. As you can see in the pics they are not very tight fitting. Bugged the hell out of me. Gonna use my dads expertise this time instead of trying to do it on my own :haha: hes good with the bender.

I think the tubing will be here tomorrow, so probably this weekend if my dad and I don't work we will get it knocked out.

I'm not a fan of your new seat upholstery. It looks "trashy". :P

Before. Note all the space between a frame and bar.

Now

It's a thousand times better fitting now. I tried taking pics to kind of hide how shitty it was before. I love the way it's in there now.
