The Dodge...frame rebuild and Finishing...

The motor is a 12v out of a 94. It has the 175hp p7100 pump. I've done very few mods...about $100 in parts and I'm at close to 300hp on paper. Or plenty to shread a stock automatic tranny. Lol. This weekend I thoroughly degreased it, rewired the entire motor with fresh wires and starter solenoids, sectioned oil pan, fixed the KDP, and changed valve cover gaskets. As far as the frame...I haven't started on it.I wanted To get the truck back on the road before I started on the frame. I do have a full-time job, customer trucks, and only a one car garage so my build will be slow until i get all my customers taken care of.

 can't wait to see this thing at a show again.  Any idea on when you plan to have it at a show again?  RA perhaps?

I was gonna rush it and drive it to BOrder Bash but I'm not sure it's gonna make it. I don't want to just throw the motor in there. I want it to be right so I'm taking my time. And it don't help that I have 3 customers trucks I'm working on right now that also need to be ready for BB. Well see...if not BB it'll def be at Turkey Drag and then hopefully debut at Texmex done. But well see...I want it done asap but cash from customers is hard to turn down.

What was the C note spent on? I know you can get pretty close to 300 without spending a dime..

I bought a $30 fuel plate, I got $40 into a 5 inch downpipe, a 90 and a couple feet of 5 inch pipe and bought a $30 airfilter. Modifying the AFC and tuning the the screws. And I already had electric fans and aluminum for the shroud.

Nice nice, i'm glad to see you got the KDP tabbed/fixed from the start. Where did you get a fuel plate for that price? and what fuel plate are you going with? I'd say ditch the plate altogether but the really only works well with a stick..

Why only people from TX and CA are spending Big $$$ on trucks/cars ?  ---------------------------------------------Those are big states with a lot more people! LOL________ I'm glad to see that you ARE going to be adding big brakes on your truck! Most people never do any upgrades with 24's and up. Best of luck with build! And Kudos for putting your customers first!!!
