Yes this is my wifes rig ,as for the parts my billet tappet cover hits the ve pump so I have to pull it off and machine out a spot where it is hitting now. The usual 1 step foward 3 back its kinda getting old lol

Now my wife wants an Excursion so I am on the hunt for a V-10 turd with a bad engine. Anyway, back to your build. Why did you decide to use the billet tappet cover any way? Just wanted one or something? That stinks about the VE hitting. Atleast you can get it done now and aren't finding out when the truck is together and half done. I know exactly about the 1 step forward 3 steps back. I swear that is my luck to a T.

Hey Chase can I get a link to your photobucket? My slow internet doesn't load all the pictures and I end up with a lot of red X's on those last groups of pics you loaded.

I'll bring my turd 95 with a VE if you bring yours. I'll park mine next to yours and yours will look sweet then. LOL Mine is the last truck to get new parts lately.

Man it is looking awesome! I love those rims and wide tires! Your oil filter relocation mods are sweet! How many pesos and what's the turn around time on one?
