The 10sp just didn't have enough OD for me.and I couldn't get eny one else to drive when we were comming home from a pull if I got tired.and I'm hopeing to get 30mpg with the extra OD form a .80 to a .62 is a big difference
and I'm getting old and lazy.

have the ht60b turbo done it is set for the varible exhaust valve.this will make the turbo spool much faster.i old tractor puller made one just like I did or I made it like he did 40yrs ago.he use a throttle cable to pull the valve shut when the turbo started to loose boost at the end of the track.he shut the valve and the turbo would keep spooled.

I got the fan shroud done saturday.I had to use the bed of the truck to bend the sheetmetel kind of crude but it worked.My wife had to give me a helping hand holding the parts in place while I clamped things together to bend them.She gave me permision to buy a brake from Harborfreight.I'm useing the electronic relay from the ford car to turn the fan on I need to pick up a temp sensor for a 05 ford car.

I went to the parts store to get a temp,sending unit for the 2005 ford car that the fan came from it was almost 60.00 the parts book didn't have the temp, listed for the sensor.
i ended up getting a Hayden universal unit it is adjustable from 215 to 165deg.I used it inconjucktion with the ford reley.

I made the dipstick tube out of the original one from the 06chevy I cut off the bottom "3 after it came out of the trany and cut the tube off of the top 6" and used 5/8 air line and slid the air line into the original tipstick tube then used heat shrink to seal them together.
