Phase 2 complete!

Well I got the gauges, 3K GSK, boost elbow, and my custom ground plate in. WOW! It's a big difference.

The installs went really well. It was about what I expected, except for the gauges, which were much easier to install than I was expecting. Got them wired in to dim with the rest of my gauges. And I colored the bulbs green with a sharpie. They actually aren't to far off from matching the stockers.

I used a Dremel tool with a attachment for sharpening knives to gring my plate similar to a 100, with a little flatspot before the radius, and a much mellower curve. I kinda played connect the dots with the two points on the stocker where the lines are flat. (Does that make sense?) I took some pics with my F-I-L's digital camera, I'll post them after he emails tham to me.

Right now it is shoved about 1/16 from all the way back, I think I am going to center it in a day or two.

I also backed the starwheel way off, might go farther back with it if smoke with my trailer aint to bad.

Congrats glad it's working good for you, these next items might be cosmetic but I've gt a feeling that bombing bug might start to grab a little tighter in the future.
