Well here are some progress pictures of my slow progress.

I pulled the truck in the shop to do some body work and get ready to convert it to a SRW.
While I had it in the shop I figured it would be a good time to do some performance work to it that I wanted to do as when I have it on the road I don't ever wanna take it back off, so trying to do all the work that requires major work now and then add-ons later.

So far got;
Head O-ringed/Resurfaced
#60LB valve springs installed
12MM ARP Head studs
.20 over marine gasket
Griddle Kit
24V Oil pump
and a Max Spool 2.5 cam.

I feel that I might get the pump on the stand somewhere while I have it down and I am waiting for some parts, but I'm not positive yet.

But I am looking into a set of 435 Injectors and 191 DVs

Then I will be slapping a SPS62/12 or a HTT 62 on.

Heres some pictures, took them w/ the cell, will get better tomorrow!

 

Looks like you have your work cut out for you

 

How do you like your Helix II?
I was going to get a Helix II but unfortunately they won't be producing them for another 60-90 days

 

So do you plan to use that bed? Are you going to change the rear axle?

Thanks,
Jason

 

I'm on the sideline about the bed.

I have a friend who wants to convert to DRW so if he is down for it I am swapping beds.

I am using the same rear just getting different studs, and removing spacers from the front.

If I keep the bed I am putting a $65.00 partial in the wheel arch and getting the holes migged.

 

Cool, can you post pics of how the fronts and rears line up when you are done. I was really wanting to see how much more the rears stick out and if you can even notice it.

Thanks!
Jason

 

3/4" information from Gabe32 who did the DRW --> SRW conversion

 

Its a nice addition, however there are other options in cams that I'm sure will work as well.

 

Must be a REALLY good friend, eh
