Small update:
-started pricing new brakes, looks like about $400 for ATE slotted rotors and Hawk LTS pads
-also started looking up parts to build a cold air intake, but I need a mass air meter calibrated for 30 lb injectors first
-I plan to order an SCT XCal III tuner from Henson Performance for this truck
-I'm not happy with the open differentials so I'm going to start work on the explorer axle swap soon, which will give me a 31 spline 4.10 LS, and I'll also get 4.10s and possibly a locker put in my spare front axle, and I'll swap that axle in myself
-I also need to make a new cross member for the rear of the truck without a hump, this will give me room to run dual 2.5" exhaust pipes to flowmaster mufflers
-I need to get the hood painted to match the truck
-I have a bunch of wiring to clean up
- I need to find a permanent location for the oil filter
-I need a bigger fuel pump and bigger fuel line, which will allow me to use the billet rails I have, the fuel pressure takes a substantial dive whenever I rev the engine
Getting the engine in running and driveable was a big obstacle which is now out of the way but I still have a lot of work to do
