All painted up, new head unit and back up camera in. Still have several details to wrap up in the interior, but coming along nicely.
Wes did a great job on this thing, it is a blast to drive.
Thanks Wes for all the hard work and putting up with me adding new items every week. The power in this thing is awesome! Looking forward to putting her to work soon. In the meantime, it’s off to paint for now.

Thanks Wes. I was initially disappointed as I was excited about picking up the truck this week, but I think this plan works even better.
I was planning on driving the truck over to John in early March anyway for the transmission since I knew it would not hold up to the new power.
Once we...
Hey guys, we are putting a John Wood trans in the truck. This was already the plan, just accelerated the timeline a little.

Gettin’ near the finish line and looking great. Looking forward to getting out there shortly to pick up and see everything you’ve done in person.
Also can’t wait to see the difference on the dyno.

Thanks for the update Wes. Every time I see a new post update, I get more excited to drive this beast again. I may have to take the travel trailer camping in the middle of January just to see the huge difference in performance while towing [emoji12]! Fingers crossed on seeing it run this...
Looking great Wes! A little surprised about that pump as it was replaced with a Ford unit not that many miles ago although it’s definitely been a few years. Appreciate all your attention to detail since I wouldn’t want to have to pull it any time soon.

Yeah, makes sense. My probe is after the turbo from the p/o install so I have been adding a couple hundred degrees to the pyro when the truck is towing/under load. I have always kept it well under 1200 degrees out of an abundance of caution.
Wes is going to swap out the pyro from the current...
I’ve owned it for about ten years now. Like to think I’ve taken pretty good care of her. Glad it’s showing during the tear down.

Thanks Wes. Nice to see the good news continuing on this project. Been a bit of a rough day, so glad to get some good news on the truck. Appreciate all the attention to detail and hard work you are putting in.

Thanks Wes, I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment, it is absolutely gutless in its current form. Can’t wait to see both the run tomorrow as well as all the changes coming soon.

I’ll let others chime in on the specific readings you listed, but how is the power difference when towing under load vs. previous to all the upgrades?

As you know, we will be out there dropping off my truck for you to work your magic, but we fly out the afternoon of the 16th so may not be able to make most of the events unfortunately.
