00' 3/4 ton 4x4 CrewCab Twin Turbo Dakota

Not a lot has happened to the truck lately. Haven't drove it in bout a week front passenger brake caliper is sticking need to change it.

I have some new DV's to try out to cut driving haze out. I'm changing the turbo setup a lil also in a month or so. Stay tuned!

Honestly, not good as I originally wanted but that is due mostly to playing/beating on it, loose converter, no plate full cut DV's, hazing everywhere i go. Ive only have round 800miles on it. I checked my mileage per GPS my speedo still isn't hooked up( I have a transfer case from a 24valve. But the last time i checked it was 17.7 mpg 60% city 40% HW.

I cant keep my mind made up. I ordered a Spool Flange and a s467.7 to run as a single. I need more room for my A/C.

I have some 025 DV's that's going in it to see if i can get rid of the haze.

Hoping with the new setup i can still get 20 MPG. If not I'm going to build another truck something like a shorty f250 or 1500.
 
It's been a while since made an update and not a lot has happened until the past 2 weeks. My center console wasn't working out like I wanted so i built another one( still need to carpet it)

Probably Switching to the 467 i have on the counter if I can find a spool flange.
After I got home figured I'de clean it up a little.

That has got to be one of my favorite all time builds ever! What you did with the ic and piping is just hands down the coolest unique idea I have seen on a truck of any sort. Awesome work man!
 
oldblue116 Thanks! I should have built it like this the first time. But I didnt think I had the clearance with the hood. And yea I have yet to see another like this myself. Ive only seen a couple cars like this..
 
Forgot to mention I weighed the truck on a certified cat scale.
Anyone want to guess what it weighs? Weighed with 3/4 tank with me in it.(180 lbs)
 
Oldblue116 really good guess! It weighs right at 6100 lbs. I was hoping it would come in under 6000 but I'm still happy its not 6500+..
 
Thanks guys!

Here is a little update, slowly working on it. With work and all(learning to tig) its been hard to find time.

some more welds from lastnight.
