Thanks for all of the comments. I wish it was going faster but the body work takes so much time. We are hoping to have the cab bottom painted and start setting it on the frame. Both doors are on and now fixing the top of the cab. Next will be making the mods for the new pin latch.

jbbird20 the manifold is a sheet metal intake. I bought it on Amazon so that if it doesn't work I can return it. I really will not know how it is going to work until I get the truck running. I do love the way it looks and I have no expectation it will provide any performance improvement.

Okay now switching the door latches over to door pins has been quite a chore, but Nick and crew did an awesome job fabricating the plates. Looks great and works even better.
