^Thanks bro, but my lady's got one too, I'll have 'em up soon enough. I just got the wheels back on today, I'll be driving it tomorrow to work w/no mirrors or trim. Thanks for the wheels man, what do you want me to do with 'em??

Wish I know you needed an IC, I just gave away my modified powerstroke IC. I cut the PS IC in half then doubled it up and addednew end tanks. It was a monster but it would have worked well.
Its coming along nicly. Will you have it out this summer?

With the move finally all finished I have time to post some update pics for those of you still following.
Here is the MSD 6BTM my buddy gave me for lending him my daily driver for a month after his died. He had it laying around and no use for it, and even though I never asked for it I appreciated that as much he appreciated the loan of my car.
The sacrifice the SAAB FMIC demanded for use in a 4 eye. And yes, it's like that for both high beams.
Even though it's a tight fit, you can still get the silicone couple on it.
Wish I would have known before hand, but these headers are going to require the relocation of the starter solonoid and coil....the down pipe fits in where they are. Oh well.
The passenger header fits in nice, pleny of clearance to access the spark plugs.
So here's where she sits now. Can't afford waterpump bolts, but xmas is coming and all I'm asking for is parts. I need waterpump bolts, autolite 3924 plugs for the E7 heads, a couple wastegate actuators, and a silicone reducer.
I hate being laid off.
Got an early xmas present from my bro though. Found this at used Westside for $60. Came with 30psi boost guage and Air/Fuel Ratio meter that ties into the stock o2 sensor. Not as good as a wideband but better than nothing.
