Heres some good info on fabbing your existing exhaust:

This will help you with the rest of it, except the oil valve:

Thanks donkey, I will look through those links and see what I can find.

I got the intercooler in today, and the fit is perfect =D

Here are some pics of what it looks like on the truck ( its not actually mounted yet, I will take pics of that too)

So, orderedered some new parts:

Autometer steering column for a Dodge Ram 02-08 Dual Pods.

Looks great man. I really dig the same side in/out on the FMIC.

 

Thanks blown. I made the brackets for it yesterday and the fit is awesome. I ordered a universal piping kit so I should be ready to get the cold side done soon.

 

Ugh. Digital gauges make me vomit. Lol. They actually look kinda cool. Nice choices.

Here's some good news for you and Blown. Aeromotive makes a replacement for the Walbro 255...and it flows 85lph more...perfect for you guys with stock fuel tanks.

Just something to keep in mind: Anytime you have something in front of the radiator (intercooler, AC, etc) you get lower flow while driving, and hotter air that goes through the radiator. The DSM guys started running into this problem in the late 90s when they upgraded to front mount intercoolers: they started seeing higher coolant temps. So, I dought you will see any change while cruising, but keep an eye on the temp when in WOT. Actually, if you can log you temps now (ie: make a pass down the track or at the dyno before boosted) and then log a pass after the setup, you would be able to see if the radiator and fan are still able to keep up with the rising temps.

Because of the core size I have on the race car (28" x 12" x 3.5"), I saw higher temps during WOT stuff and even during cruising, when the fans weren't on (they are on a manual switch, no automatic crap here).

 

This weekend I mounted the gauges and ran all the wiring.
I painted the bottom part of the steering column cover with a textured black so that it matched the top side better.

I'm very happy with the results... I went ahead and paited my side mirrors with the same textured paint( one was scratched from a mailbox )

Now I have to come up with a way to make the new steering cover attach firmly to the bottom one. Im thinking i could do a couple of ""welds" with crazy glue so that I can easily remove it down the line if I need to. Any ideas?

 

I found a write up for a turbo install that i think it will help you a lot!
