Ok, I think I have everyone on here beat with presents for the truck. Since I have been deployed to Japan since June I have been ordering stuff for the truck to make up for not seeing her. I will be back in Hawaii in two days and here is a list of stuff the I have purchased for the truck so far:

Built long block with Stage II cams
Canton oil pan/windage tray
Kooks long tubes
REMs catback
Reichard Racing 2.75" upper pulley
PSP 6# lower
Mezeir electric waterpump
JDM heat exchanger
Zex wet kit 75-125
JLP Supercooler
Sir Michaels roll pan w/end caps
Street Scene smooth wiper cowl
Street Scene smooth bed caps
Street Scene smooth tailgate cap
Outrageous Performance line lock kit
3 Spal 7.5" fans for intercooler
Mr Alternator 200 amp alternator
ACC black carpet
Billet Flow throttle body
Billet Flow idlers pulleys
Metco idler kit

I am sure I have forgotten some other stuff too. My motor is getting shipped out on the 15th of this month. While I am waiting for the motor I will be installing the carpet and smoothing and painting every piece of plastic in the truck. Don't worry, when I get home I will take PLENTY of pictures for you guys.

I hear you,
It sucks not being Don or Vinnie


I will however do the 58" Traction Bars
The V/B Mod
And yes a Nitrous Window Switch "for safety"
(incase I decide to add another 25 HP OR SO
..............MUST BEAT GATOR AT ALL COST................

Waiting for one of you to give me a great deal on a
"already painted" Black Custom Hood
(I walked away from one, I NEVER SHOUD HAVE)

Things I got my eyes on
Pep Boys has the most awesome set
of buckets for a really good price

No Exhuast Mod (Love the Whine waaaaaaay too much)
But I really like the idea of those electric operated exhuast cutouts. The ones that can be opened or closed at any position from fully closed to fully open.
Maybe a Spacer, and maybe the Eaton porting Mod

Hopefully more if some money falls out of the sky ???

PS
I hope Vinnie gives me his Slicks and Rims when he buys new ones

Talking

She already got a 4lb. pulley. Now she's getting new rubber. Can't wait to line up with a new (cough, cough) SRT-10, so I can hopefully stay close to its rear bumper. LOL

I'd put my money up to say...............most SRT-10's will be garage queens. IF.................IF................you see one at the strip..........Well....................wait and see what the results will be.

whynot run the 125 on stock boost andmaybee it wil hold togethor longer but run faster. Wouldnt 125 of nitrous on 8lbs boost be faster than 14lbs on 75 ?

You know you may be on to something there Racer

I def see myself steping it up next season.
Thats Part of the reason I'm now getting a window switch to cut off the Juice @ 6k.
Just in case I loose traction on the launch, we dont want it to go


Not at least until we whoop Gators Butt
after he spends all that money
