I plan on working on it every day, but never end up getting any time. The CNC machine is being used through the Monday, so I won't be able to cut the aluminum blocks til then, anyway.
 
Is it doing donuts in the parking lot yet?

PS-Pius has an new wheel we could put in those atmosphere turbos. Jump it from 2000-cfm to 2400-cfm.

I thought I'd finally get time to work on it now that Big Jer is working for us, but it hasn't happened yet :(

I'll be talking to you soon about getting my turbos off to Pius! I have some other ideas I want to bounce off Pius, too, that I'll need you to talk to him about.
 
Finally got some time to cut up the stock upper coil mounts and weld up the plate for the airbag to mount to.

Tell me about it! We moved into a new shop, hired one tech, then had an opportunity to knock down a wall and add a few thousand more square feet, while still being broke from the initial move, then hired another tech...and I still don't have time to work on my truck!
 
Wow. It's awesome that y'all are able to stay so busy in a horrible economy though.

Thanks! We're throwing a big, early Thanksgiving at the shop for all our customers, friends and family tomorrow so I'm excited to get some pics of the shop with no vehicles in it. I'll post some up.
 
Motor is in and the truck is sitting at about the height I want it at. I'm working on a new wheel/tire combo this week, so hopefully while that gets sorted out, I'll be able to get the front of the truck put back together and fire the motor up...I'm getting excited!

We had a nice lil dinner at the shop lastnight which consisted of 6 smoked turkeys, 2 spiral hams, a ton of sides, and a keg of Blue Moon...it was a great time!
