Had some serious time to finally dedicate towards this project, installed rad support, rad, intercooler, and ac condensor. Had to clock the HX-35 to take the intercooler tubes

End of the day today I fired it up and drove it ahead and backed up a couple feet, what a great feeling!

With the box off now is a good time to install an axillary tank. The tank from a Ramcharger fits nicely behind the rear axle and is pretty easy to put in if you can get the cross members with it.

Oh, and the Ramcharger tank is actually bigger than your stock tank!

Good idea but i'm ok with the capacity of the stock tank. It will give me a around a 7hr empty drive time or 4hrs pulling. My bladder isn't that big!

Installed the clock spring and did some work on the valve cover vanity plate

The floor had quite a few cracks in it, spent some time welding them all up and all the holes that the previous owners had drilled everywhere.
