OK, since Rick posted the picture I will show some more that I took. I wanted to make sure it was alright to post them


















Remember I will have these on there, and Rick is going to completely redo my wiring Harness so you won't see it. Also I will use the L76 intake Manifold

Thanks Rick for the update

When's your truck going under the knife mark? This should be quite an awesome slice and dice job by Rick and his crew. Looks like your gonna have a terrible vacume in your engine bay under WOT. Can't imagine what 438 ci at 6500 rpm's is gonna consume but I would assume if you point those intakes forward you might get a little boost from the wall of low pressure that's gonna form at the front end of your truck!

I am running a breather setup off the valve covers to vent air.
