^^^ yes, im gonna clean it up and im painting some parts with engine enamel to match the truck and hide most if not all of the nitrous wires..its a mess right now if you look at my gallery.. it will all be degreased and hopefully look better than new..do you guys think it better to pull the motor out top or lift the truck of the motor/tranny.we figured lift the truck off
