well

hate to be negative but i'm hoping alot of that stuff is mock up. Look at the alternator bracket

Some of those welds are suspect too.

And before you ask, no i can't do any better

I'm guess the fact that the engine bay is stripped out that either you will retrofit some of the stuff to go back, or this is going to be an all out drag truck.

Half the hoses are not connected, its pretty obviously still a WIP.

well there isnt anything on the passenger side firewall i reconized, not to mention that one pic you can see clear to the ground, doesnt look like a truck frame/suspenion is under there.

But thanks for the sarcasm
