I know and I still have some tricks up my sleeve for this Spring
Paul- I know it's not 'stubby stubby' but it's shorter than stock, black, glossed, and gets the same reception so I am happy. *shrug*
Also, I think I am going to install things one at a time and do 0-60, 30-60, and 50-80 runs for them each time on the same road. The only thing I will do together is the torque converter and shift kit because they both involve being near the tranny. Just waiting on Blown to drop off the perty valve body
Lastly, I emailed the rotor place and they said the black will wear off leaving it silver with black dimples and slots, I want it that way so you can see them against the black rims, and I WILL be getting my calipers painted red, don't you worry.
p.s. - It's already coming together...

Well now that I've stopped drooling...

That would be the best Christmas ever, talk about a welcome home party! Can't wait to see it all on, the truck is getting quite a transformation.
