I think that pic is over a couple years old and those lines in the wheelwell for the fuel selector valve are no longer there since it was upgraded to a different configuration some time ago. The truck has a totally redundant dual fuel system with two tanks, two pumps and the valves to switch them to feed or return to either one. The traction bars are a very unique custom design I call torque links. Here is a copy of the writeup:

Dar, you got a sweet truck there too, no doubt. I believe the intercooler writeup is a sticky here and it's also on DB, under the rotary bombs section, IIRC.

Raggmann, that is a beautiful truck. I don't think I've ever seen yours before. But that is nice!

I will be there i don't care if it hair lips the pope, tonight i polished up my new stainless cooler tubs, and polished on the P/S intercooler some, gota get that stuff on in the next couple of weeks. See you there, and BRING YOUR TRUCK YOU SISSY.
