You have to let everyone know they are following a Dodge the picture is to dark to show the dual exhaust, boy does that get some strange looks at the cruise inns! if you look close you can see the top of the fuel cell in the bed of the truck.

Nice! I love it! How long has the red paint on the exhaust manifold been on there?

The paint has been on for about a month I bought it a Auto Zone it is the 500 degree header paint so far no problems. I actually painted the motor and exhaust manifold with the motor mounted in the truck I painted the exhaust manifold first then I taped them of with blue painters tape and painted the motor. Thanks for the complement.

Great looking truck! I love all the little details, especially the custom grillwork. I may have to employ such an idea on my van!

Hey, since /6.com went down I don't have some of the info I need. I wanted to ask you again about the pcv valve you're using. What vehicle is it for? Have you had the truck running at 60mph before and no oil trying to come out of the breather or dip stick?
Thanks for the info!
ps did you make a new throttle connection for your Carter YFA? I've been working on a new one.

I have been really busy lately with work and the holidays I have not been working on my truck I did install a holley carb, but I need a gasket for it. I will get the info on the PVC valve for you maybe this afternoon. I have had no problems with oil at highway speeds 60 plus. Right now I have the fuel cell and bed out of the truck to redo them this winter. I also have to do something with the brakes the rears are of an 88 Dakota so they are no problem finding parts, but the stock 56 drums on the front are a real challenge!! I may have to bit the bullet and do the disc conversion. Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR Jim
