did he bead blast the intake or sand blast it.....just be sure and clean it extra good if you sand blasted it.....sometimes it is hard to get all the sand out of an intake.

That looks great. Might be the angle but it looks like hood clearance might be tight towards the front. Hope it is just an illusion and your cowl scoop is enough space. It seems like your truck gets the most upgrades and work done to it of anyone around here, at least over the last year or so.

I dont think anyone has done so much modifications in such a short amount of time with a truck here. DAMN!!!
Did you have to fab special motor mounts to fit the TPI motor or will Hooker mounts work?
