Well it's been in storage all winter here in Virginia Mn,
But got a 95 head studded and fire ringed some porting.
Finally got a balanced 1410 drive shaft as I was running a small mopar shaft.
And forged alloy moser axels with the much needed three inch studs.
Still have yet to mount the wheelie bars, I have to move the shocks again.
I exploded the industrial n/ic pump and went with a reman ic dodge pump, it sure doesn't fuel like the old one but still lights em up.
Gotta get some detailing paint done here and there and such too.

Those 1st and last pics are awesome. I love the stance on it, and the color really stands out. 8)

I like the second pic I can see how it load changes on acceleration
It used to be a St. Louis county (Minnesota where it spends most its time) DOT, kinda cool to me that its so on the verge of breaking so many laws. That's the trucks factory color still it's kinda mustard it's kinda rusty

Well I bit the bullet today and picked up a 96 215 pee pump engine today for the bucket. I know I'll never have the fueling abilities I want for this truck with the ve pumps, as much as I love them this one will get converted. I'll still have three ve's in the stable though the plow truck the crew cab and maybe I'll use the buckets pump in a boat woohahahahaha

Ugh today might just be the last day of rotary injection on the bucket.
It sputtered a little and just died in the car wash line of all places :( I'll be doing some diagnostics on some things but im fairly sure she ain't putting out enough pressure to pop the injectors. Like a dummy my fuel pressure gauge has been disconnected for no good reason but the electric pump is making noise as usual?
