Last peice of my puzzle showed up today!

IMG00071-20100316-0259.jpg

Im going to get all my parts together and get a before and after shot of before i have them coated and cleaned, and after i have them coated and cleaned, i have everything i need now (main ****) little stuff i still need to get like install kits, gaskets and **** like that.

Mopar Air Hat
F&B 52mm TB
M-1 Intake 4bbl and 2bbl not sure which im going to use
Mopar Valve Covers
1.7 Crower Rockers
Indy Ram 2.02 Heads
Comp Cam 218/224 .561/.569 113
Hardened Pushrods
Mopar PPH headers
MSD 6A Ignition
SCT Tuner (Sean is going to tune when its all together)

So i have all the main ****, the little things im going to probably replace are the lifters, springs, and some other **** i cant think of right now because its 3am.

Either way probably the end of this month or mid next month in going to Allen to have the **** Powder Coated, and the Headers are going to get Ceramic Coated Again.

Then before i get everything together im going to have the heads checked and assembled at a shop in Denton, and once they are done ill put them on with everything else.

I cant wait.

Everything will be silver metallic besides the air hat and valve covers. Those will be a medium blue, and the ceramic coat will be a chrome polish look.

My color theme is going to be siver blue, and black blue interior.

Yes a few things.

Headers, Ypipe, Exhaust, M-1 4bbl intake manifold, Accessory Bracket, TB Link Bracket, Bed Rug, Tail Lights, Rear Sway Bar, Rear Fender Flares, Rollpan, and my R/T Rims thats it...

I left the fresh built 46re tranny in it. had stage 2 shift kit, 2800 stall, rebuilt from scratch with all new Kevlar parts, ect... only had about 9k miles on it, and left the Cal-Trac Ladder Bars on it.. pissed me off.
