Not at all. The fuel tank is the only thing that takes some work, you wanna gravity feed the pump. I bought a new in cab tank welded a -6 bung on the bottom and another for the return. Works great

The mule got some love this week, swapped out the torque converter, new paint job for the power plant and got rid of the old msd box to let the sniper run the timing.

Nice looking lineup. With three of them, I bet it is hard to have a dollar in the pocket!

Re: The Blue Mule
Always a good day when this thread pops up. Do you run the hyperspark ignition with the sniper too?

Thanks. Streator is always a blast! They close the downtown to regular traffic and have designated cruise circuit for the show cars. It brings out some great stuff I should of took more pics but I was too busy cruising!
