Slow and getting slower

Height from the valley cover to the top of the intake near the back is around 12" best I can tell.
I got everything put back together today and redid the drain because it was leaking slightly. And hopefully fixed leaks on the tcase output and oil cooler feed block. Of course when I finish it starts raining so the test drive has to wait!
The only way I could fit the cutout was down since there is just so little room in there. Not thrilled about it but dont plan on lowering the truck any further.

Just kidding, the outcome is looking damn good

I will probably figure out a way to rotate that cutout flange so I can at least move it to nearly sideways, really just anything but straight down 
Little skreet action today in Mexico...

I make appearances in the beginning, 0:16 vs a camaro (not sure on mods), 0:49, and 1:07.
The white evo is owned by Walker (the guy that made my new hot pipes), and is 500-600whp.
Apparently the let off point is exactly 600ft, so a little shorter than an 1/8 mile. I was around 100mph when I let off so it seems about right.
I am still having issues with the wastegate...with the cutout closed it will now hold it around 12psi though, which isnt bad, but with it open it still wants 20+. More than that, my truck starts to misfire above 20psi. If I can get that fixed I may just let it eat The new shocks seem to be doing much better, truck launched great all day.

Evo got yanked!
Im guessing this is the place about 20 miles east of us? My truck is down for a whilee, but the camaro is getting closer everyday, guess I need to try and come out to play when it gets all buttoned up. No chance ill be giving you a run, but Maybe I can beat up on the eclipse lol

Lol there are cars of every speed that come out! we can find you a race no doubt.
just to put it into perspective, on low boost my truck runs ~ 7.3 @ 96. i ran the evo from a roll headed home and he put about 1.5 cars on me from 60-120 ish
