Yeah, it definitely wears on you quite quickly, especially when you are INSIDE the truck.

When do you go for the exhaust work?
When you go, get some pictures of the under chassis please?
If he will let you, the exhaust work progress?

I am curious how you routed your fuel lines from the back to the front since I expect to be working on mine next weekend (weather permitting).

I told the guy with the trans that I got a 20 gallon fuel cell and he just shook his head..... He asked why and I told him cause I am wanting to do either power tour or drag week this year.. Now that plan has been kind of chopped down to a single stage if I can save up the money and get the Ford going.

i just ran the fuel line along the top edge of the passenger side frame rail and up over the passenger side fender well. the regulator is bolted to the inside of the passenger side fender.

YUP

Have you seen any videos of mine looking that UGLY??

Seriously?

I have a thing for good videos. Clear and clean and easy on the eyes..

You can tell that with the videos I make at the local dragstrip on sundays during racing season.

I guess I got spoiled to clear and in focus video from the **** industry.....

Was that a bounce off the rev limiter on the shift?

yeah it nails the rev limiter on 2-3. it's in the tuning. 7k shift point on a 7200 rev limit combined with the line pressure being too low. it's slowly getting better. it used to drill that limiter until i lifted a hair and got back in it.
