Where did you find the nav?
OEM, correct?
Looking to swap the 6 cd changer out for one.

Its been a while, but I have a small update. Finally had a little time this week to work on the truck again. I popped my Nav unit in there and got it all squared away. Pretty happy with it for the price.
It's insanely easy to remove and replace the head units on these trucks, but you have to have it unlocked by a dealership with the TechII in order to work. Its why I was dragging my heels putting it in... didn't know when I was going to have time to drop it off for a couple hours and I didnt want to be without the radio for a week or more.
I have all the gauges I need and have also bought a walbro 255, the goal is to install the blower next weekend.

Just getting together a few last minute parts to finish up the install... right now I am working through the valley cover vs. spacer ordeal. I am waiting for a call back from the magnacharger 'hot rod' guy to talk about it.
Sounds good to me! I'd love to check that thing out.
Where in quincy are you? My office is in Braintree right by the split on wood road.
Yup its an OEM part. I found it on here... but if I was you I would browse craigslist and ebay to find one.

What are you putting it into? You need to make sure you have the correct model for your truck.

Apparently those composite spacers are on recall... magnacharger is sending me some aluminum ones for free. For those of you running the spacers, give them a call! They will send you the new piece free. The one last snag is now connecting my fuel pressure gauge to the fuel line... what type of adapter do I need? I ordered a Autometer cobalt 0-100 gauge, and the fuel line has a 1/8 NPT, but they don't match up. Can anyone help me out here?

I am using the rails that came with the TVS as well... at least I think so. I'm using the rails that were sent to me. Its a 1/8 fitting but my gauge doesn't fit with it. What type of gauge are you using? I have an Autometer
