Not today exactly, but last weekend:

Finally replaced (at 200k miles) the original IP & injectors that I picked up from that Uhaul sale from what? A couple of years ago?

Picked up a return line kit from Oregon Fuel Injection in town as we did it kind of last minute. Didn't realize the only parts out of the kit I'd need were the line & the clamps :mad:

Would have save a few $.

I put a new zf shifter boot in yesterday. What a difference. The cab is about 30 degrees cooler and the noise is greatly reduced. I got the boot directly from the dealership for $85, well worth the money after I took the old one out and saw how bad it really was.

Today I'm tightening up some exhaust leaks, loading up and will be rally bound.:cheers::D

Did it have both boots? Or just the upper black one?

Starting disassembly for new turbo kit an manifolds an up pipes. Got a re-seal kit for it. Gonna rebuild oil cooler an put back together. I'm not gonna run a cam yet. I wanna see what a simple turbo upgrade will do for an IDI. Also check what my temps change,cruising boost,egt's loaded or not, an few other things. An compare it to a 088 ats. Then all go back an do studs,cam,an ic. An see what happens from there. Hope to have it back goin within 3 weeks!

It's there. I'm not normally a fan of that style rim, but they look really good on your truck! ;Sweet

And for the AC, I have been thinking of just using pressure switches when I redo my system. Haven't decided yet. But they work great on other types. Those VOV setups can be a bear sometimes.
