Thanks everyone. Trying to tie up a few loose ends and get the interior back together. Hopefully the weather will warm up so I can put my rubber floor mat in. Also working on the rear brakes on Jakes truck.

I dropped the CAI off at the powder coaters Saturday and should have it back by the end of the week. In preparation for finishing this part of the project, I got a little crazy with my 2.5" holesaw.....:D.

I thought about it, but with the front cover on and the CAI installed, you won't be able to see any of it....

You may not be able to see it, but it will smooth the transition for air to enter the CAI. ;)

Thanks! It's a "different power" the torque curve is much flatter with the LS motors, and the A6 keeps it to the ground...:devil:
