my "new" 98 12V
so i just got back from Las Vegas and my wife had brought down my new to me 98 12v 4x4 from a user on here in MN. heres the run down...
1998 2500 12V. It is a quad cab long box. It is amethist blue in color. i bought it with 167K on it. It has a custom fiberglass hood with hood scoop, custom front and rear bumpers. It has aftermarket rims with 285 pro comp all terrains on it. also factory rims with MTs. The rear fender wells are starting to rust but I have a brand new take off box that came with it but it is a different color so it will need to be painted. It has PW/PL/CC/AC/ leather seats, wood grain trim. It has AM/FM/CD/cassette with infinity speakers. It has the towing package and aftermarket trailer brake controller. It has Autometer gauges pyro (pre turbo) boost, and tranny. It is running bosch marine 370 hp injectors (also have bosch 40hp injectors) Currently runing 204 delivery valves but I I still have the 181s. It has a custom fuel plate in it. It has a K&N cold air intake kit on it. it has a borg warner s300 turbo and custom 4" exhaust from the turbo back. The tranny has been built with BD torque converter, valve body, and shift kit. It has 4:11 gears.
the only problems i see so far is the horn doesnt work and the starter is sticking so i have to whack it with a hammer i just like to think of it as my own personal security system. and the boost gauge doesnt seem to be working right but that is an easy fix. other than that i love it!! i know its coming so i will post pics later when i have more time

Lucky.......... I have been thinking about that exact purchase for years now! The only problem has been being able to afford it.Now that the 98's are finally getting in my range price wise they are also getting rarer and are carrying a lot of miles...Waiting for my unmodded low miler,maybe some day I'll find one?Anyone have one
Lol!!
Lol!!
