Thumbs up

Looks good!
I like the location of your exhaust . That's on of my future mods, stock tips, Magnaflow muffler and side exit.

IMO, the truck looks meaner with the L valance. How high does the cowl rise up?

It is Cervini's 3" cowl hood. I really like the fact that it is functional, as well. I can't believe how many compliments I've received on the finish of underside of this hood, plus the body shop's quality paint work. Cervini= quality glass!!

Looks awsome!!! It does look pretty good with the L valance. Just gotta get that lower grille chromed now! LoL

so did you use your stock HD fogs? or L or aftermarket ones?

And yeah, cervini's is some top quality stuff!!

Thanks! I actually had to buy the oem L foglights from Ford. The body shop said that the HD fogs would not fit in this valance. Supposedly tried mock assembly. Oh well.

Just got a close up look of the new F150 HID headlights yesterday, and WOW! I think I want those next.

Here are my plans for mods (which I already have in boxes in my garage). I'm installing my gauges (Autometer Lunar boost and trans temp) Friday. Then I can check my stock boost level.
- Then I will dyno stock setup w/ only Bassani cat-back mod.
- Next goes the L upper pulley to pretty much even the HD with stock L spec's.
- Re-dyno with just upper L pulley and compare to my '01 L dyno #'s. This will help in estimating driveline losses from 2 piece driveshaft. (I'm considering a custom 1 piece aluminum ds)

- Next comes the bolt-ons with only stock L boost levels:
1- PHP extrude honed upper plenum (just got it today and it looks incredible!)
2- Accufab single blade throttle body, oval
3- AFM power pipe
4- PSP filter kit
All of these boty-on's will dramatically improve airflow effieciency without increasing boost from more blower speed/rpm's. I am curious to see the boost level change and HP/TQ gains by these alone! One more dyno? or just track times?

Additionally, I'm installing the Factory Tech valve body, which I took off my L (best mod I ever did!) and 4X4 trans pan this weekend.

Soo far, my new HD F150 has been much more of a joy to drive now that I have the awesome sounding Bassani exhaust and improved handling/ ride quality from Ground Force 1/2 kit, nitro shock, and Hotchkis anti-sway bars. I'll get some more pic's of new mod's if you want.

are you talking about the ones that look like the HD headlights but have no orange strip at the bottom, just a chrome bar? like on the 03 KR and heritage editions?
