Little update, I think the stock RPM gauge is shot. When I turn the truck on, it goes to 2k and stays there. Start the truck and it give it a little throttle, it goes up and then comes back down to 2k and stays there. Also found out it was time to replace the Cap,Rotor and ignition coil. So after looking around and with my discount at work, the MSD parts were not that expensive. I also decided to get some plug wire holders also so I will have a full set and they will match.

Good progress.....when is it going in for paint???
I kinda like the farm truck look!!Originally Posted by ZeusSVT
Trucks got a long way to go before it gets painted. Still got to tear it down after all the panels are replaced so the frame can be powder coated as well as all new brake lines and custom fuel system. This is like a three-four year project.
So do I, The looks I get from people now with the color's it has on it is funny.
My F250 looked like that for a while. Multiple colored fenders and such. I was kind of sad when I painted it. I ended up covering it in bedliner. It looks like a stealth bomber..

I am getting ready to put some exhaust on the Dirty Dog. Tired of the stock system. It's full of holes and rusted all ouver. I got a set of mid pipes and catback on the way. No cats, duel in duel out Magnaflow with Gen. 2 style exit.
The exhaust setup that will be here Tuesday
Look what showed up Today
Dont you just love the delivery person sometimes?
Yeah, I wasn't home when the UPS guy dropped it off, but I saw him a day later at work and thanked me for having that big heave box delivered.
But I did get it into the Basement and hope to get it put on this Saturday. But the stock header flange bolts want to come out. I have been spraying them with PB Blaster every day twice a day. So hopefully it won't be to bad.
Well we got the exhaust swap done last weekend. The guy built the kit just right and didn't have to jack up the truck and up on jack stands for the install. The section coming off the headers was cut just short of the Cross beam and the last two sections went in like a glove. We did have to get new bolts for the header flanges, but that was not to bad of a issue. The truck was not that loud at first, but its starting to break in and sound better.
That looks very nice...

It looked like your truck jizzed on the camera when you started it
