Cory made it work, milled a little on the head, drilled and tapped it for the banks intake and also milled some on the intake as well.... it will work, after I re weld tabs on the rail, plug the factory map port and relocate it to intake piping.

What are you gonna run for the front axle, I was hoping you stayed with the stock bolt in dana44. And if it worked out was gonna copy the setup.

Do it, just don't go full potato. It would literally drop in.
I ditched it because I was bound to very few gear ratio options since I knew I was going to run a 9 inch in the rear and to match the pair together was getting to be a headache...

Just went through your entire thread again, and I must say, I am supremely jealous of your skills, patience, and end product. Fine work! I want videos of this thing kicking ass.

long story short not much was happening after i got the engine running, after a month shy of 2 years of the truck at dow brothers race cars i got a roll cage, front axle, and lightweight t-case built and had my project aborted. decided the best option was to finish myself.

That’s what I call gutting the cab.
Glad you posted some pics of the progress. Patiently awaiting the end result.
