Thanks a lot everyone! Here are a few more. Not much difference, just slowly getting it back together.

Finally got it back. Still need to put on trim (next week) and clean it up a little. I like it a lot!

Re: Harnalien's Build Thread

I got my 6.0 today. It's an '04 w/ 80K. I got a DBC throttle body and a computer for an '02 since I'll be running 700r4 with it. Obviously, this was a big step towards making the swap.

I got the valve springs, pushrods, and all the gaskets for the cam swap. Hopefully I'll be able to get that done next week.

Pics of the truck after a wash and of some more of the parts I'm collecting. Seems like it's a never ending list.

Re: Harnalien's Build Thread

Does anyone know if a gasket goes between the block and the oil bypass cover? If so, where can I get that from? Thanks!

Re: Harnalien's Build Thread

Thanks guys! I actually found it, part # 12611384. I had some other stuff to order, so I threw that one in. Some of this stuff is a pain in the rear to find part numbers for. Anyway, I figure i'd post some pics of my harness i got from psiconversion.

Re: Harnalien's Build Thread

Thanks buddy! I got my Schoenfeld headers in today and got to mock up the driver's side and it looks promising. I should be able to try the passenger side on Monday. I am really hoping they work out! I'll get some progress pics up next week.

what rear brackets you use for the bumper. I have one, but, I cant figure out if the diamond plated bumper brackets will work. I've searched online for brackets but I'm not sure which ones to order. Please help. Thanks!

Re: Harnalien's Build Thread

Well, it's been one disaster after the other, but I truly am getting close! I actually drove it around. It still needs some fine tuning and the exhaust needs to be done. I couldn't get on it because I still need to get the tranny dialed in. Sounds mean though. Exhaust guys coming out to the house on Monday, so hopefully I'll be rolling after that!
