i plow with my truck. 2 batteries helps with getting power to the plow quicker, less draw from the too.

Yea to much, where both oil gauges pegged? I would finish hooking it all up before worrying.

not that im aware of. maybe its the break-in oil im using? i know it was fluctuating as i was hitting the throttle, but im thinking it was just a fluke. if there isnt too much snow on the ground in the morning ill hook up the exhaust, and get the wideband going to see how that looks.

Holy crap dude....that is lowwwwd!! lol

I had no idea you could run the thing w/o coolant?!??! Good to know.

FWIW, my oil psi fluctuated some early on, but not up to 145!! It settled down though to the typical 40ish.

Good job

Why is the tcase out? I must have missed that.

t-case is out cause i pulled the transmission and everything to make it easier(im a big guy)

im going to try to get everything hooked up coolant and exhaust wise tomorriow, providing it isnt snowing too much.
