I was thinking it looked like something was missing in the second pic, then i scrolled down and it all made sense. To quote Rubberfrog:

Its close to completion, the engine was put back in its resting place tuesday, Im waiting on my mopar intake manifold which REALLY cleans up the engine bay and I have to get a custom intake elbow made, all thats really left is wiring up my dual coils, but tehre again waiting for the manifold so I can hide all the wiring, wire up my gauges (boost, AFR, EGT) and finish my exhaust should be donw within the next week or so, Traction is going to be sucky for sure I run 305/45/22 BUT I have 456s and its 2wd I have some Moes traction bars But im not sure how they will work. Other than that Thanks for all the compliments and I will post more pics soon of other random parts as they come in.

Shiet, I think the truck itself is pretty tough looking in itself. Then you pop the hood Holy Schniekies!! (Chris Farley, rip) I thinking the Stickey Thompsons should help ya out a lot in the traction department, but I doubt you'd ever get a 'dead hook' out of that beast, 'specially with the 4.56's. You know you're gonna have to spray that thing at half-track don't ya, lol. Kiss the tires bye bye if you juice it off the line

Sounds like you DEF have a lot going in the knowledge department. Hope you plan on sticking around these parts for a while, spread the wealth! (I meant knowledge, but Im accepting handouts too )

Well to be honest I have no clue I have alot of parts that people have not really tried on these trucks for instance the single plane mopar performance intake manifold, and the true dual 3" mandrel bent exhaust with H pipe, and my self ported heads, and delted A/C, On a buddys truck we did Heads cam headers and exahust and we got 346HP and 377ftlbs, another buddys truck was stockish with a superchager and got 357HP and 360ftlbs, Im guessing my HP will be slightly higher than my Tq on this build since the single plane mani and the LARGE exhaust But thats why I did the 456s I was going to add a converter but I will be switching to a manual tranny which shuold yeild more power, Lets just say im shooting for 500RWHP, first dyno will be with my 4.0 (6PSI) pulley Well I have a 5% overdrive crank pulley too that should add 1-2 more PSI, and intercooler, Then after that one I will tune my water/meth and add the 2.8 pulley(15PSI) give or take 1-2PSI for the crank pulley it will be exciting to see what it does.
