Update*

Truck is at Bob's (Next Gen). Went lean on me heading up there, the MAF dropped out. He said, with current stock block, 12psi on the 2 5" pulley is too much on 93. Ordered a 2.8" to hopefully put me at 9psi. Would be safe on 93 and e85 then.

IAT went through the roof, so I'll probably end up getting the Interchiller I wanted for dropping charge temps. Really wanted to be done doing things.

Future plans, drop Forged Lower Compression pistons/rods. So I can make the block safe for years to come.

I guess we'll see what happens
Ice box it

Update time!!

Since I got it back from Bob, it's on the safe side currently. IATs have been ridiculously high, but the good news is my interchiller I'll be here tomorrow along with my 3 gallon reservoir. Next week I have a new cold air intake and a Katech 103mm throttle body... Jokerz talked me into it, lol. But there was an issue. No one made a throttle body adapter plate for a 103mm that clocks the throttle body like I need. So they hooked me up with Late Model Throttle in Wisconsin and they're making me one that works.

After all this, I hope it runs like a raped ape... I don't like the crunch time builds lol.

Oh, there is one more thing. I have to pull the dash apart... the 2 heater core lines needed to be massaged away from the blower. I was warned this could happen easily, but one cracked... and coolant is leaking in the cab [emoji2357]

Fun times right? ONWARD!
