Stock driveshaft with 80e and 1" back TransDapt plates
Stock shift linkage needs to be shortened about 1"-1.5" and it should work fine

Guages installed!
Well I got the beast running last night!!! Got a small water leak by the thermostat and a small leak by the PS pump fitting, otherwise sounds good. But the big problem I ran into is fueling, I had the tune set at 108# injectors, which is what mine are @ 58psi, and I fired it up and it would run for about 2 seconds and die. I finally got it to run long enough to where my wideband heater warmed up and the AFR was peaked out at 17 AFR, so I moved my injector flow rate down to 95# and it idled real good but AFR was still peaked at 17 AFR and if you'd hit the throttle a little it would just want to die. I'm gonna put a fuel pressure gauge on tonight after work and see if mabe the stock FPR is shot... IDK what else it could be?? Ideas??

Well turns out the Bosh 044 in-line pumps dont really work well for gravity feed situations (or so I've been reading) although I took my pre-pump filter out and now it works, kinda for about 15 mins, I can at least drive it around for a little lol. Got a new Walbro 255 with high flow fittings from Glenns Performance on the way,and in the near future I'll have a second one on the way too lol. In the mean time here's a little teaser video lol

First off, the reason the front fender looks that way is because my brother owned the truck before I did and he was planning on repainting it, and he started sanding LOL, and the intake off the turbo, yes I know is very restrictive, but is also temporary. I just put together what I had in the shop LOL
