Default 5.7 Hemi pics post installation

Well, I've finally got some pictures but trying to attach them to this post is a nightmare. Anyone explain the easiest way to get a group of pics on here? Actually, it may be my computer. It doesn't seem to do anything when I try to upload.??

Thanks
Jeff

I used the standard mounting holes of the Dakota booster. The smaller Jeep booster provided enough clearance.
Did have to re-drill the bracket holes. Wasn't bad at all.
Enlarged the mastercylinder mounting holes to fit on the Jeep booster.
Modified the booster pin in order to fit in the master cylinder piston.


I've put about 2k miles on it this summer. It is extremely hard to stay out of the throttle..haha. I still averaged 17mpg, not too bad.
