Was thinking of doing the same thing Keith.:thumb::thumb:

The forward part of the bed can be removed too or at least put a piece of aluminum there. Back and side windows can be changed out for..... Hand crank windows with the doors lightened. Cut out forward lower fender well frame of cab. Remove a/c and heater system. Ect, ect, ect.........

Aw, what the heck. Let's just build a racing tube chassis truck.
Yes, I've been thinking of doing that too.:thumb::thumb::thumb:

 

I am only modding the bed area of my truck still want all the nice electric stuff if I go with a roll cage later on the rear glass will get changed until then I'm leaving it alone

 

then I'm leaving it alone

Think I said that once or twice........

 

Anyone who has removed their tailgate has thought about what it would take to lighten the damn thing.

 

Yea between just that an the spare that's quite a bit of weight.

 

What about moving your battery to some where at the rear of the truck like Tyler did? That would only help your weight transfer and traction.

 

Where did Tyler move his to?

 

Don't want to have to deal with a kill switch at pbir if the batt is moved you are supposed to have one besides its nice and safe where it at now

 

weight transfer and traction

I think I have that covered stu just saying battery good to go what I do need is some drag shocks now for a lowered truck to try and limit front end climb less rise up front and still maintaining traction means faster et's in the 1/4

 

I like Tyler's box. I plan to move the battery, mostly I want to use the space the battery is now occupying.

 

My new toy 140a snap on mighty mig welder tig torch and spool gun ready for aluminum maybe I will make an intake still in the air about it but for my longbar setups this thing is going to work beautifully maybe make a few sets to have around just Incase

 

Hey Keith, have you noticed how much heat is being pulled off the radiator blowing into the engine compartment and under the a/w aftercooler? My aftercooler gets allot of heat from the radiator too. Maybe a heat shield to block the air flow to the aftercooler? Your thoughts on this........

 

Would Deff work for long trips efficiency wise but at track once its cooled down doesn't run long enough to heat up which is why I have a seperate switch to run my aftercooler water pump when truck is off

 

What if an outer box was built around the intercooler that could shield it and hold a little ice at the same time?

 

That's an idea bit that's also more possible leaks and alot of work not to mention it will be alot bigger and there's already somewhat limited space

 

Or, old school Mopar ram air? Two hose ducts taking air from the front of the truck going to a box that sits on top of the aftercooler. Air flows in at the top to the bottom of the aftercooler shielding it from the hot engine compartment....

 

Was looking for somewhere to mount my ice tank and discovered a big issue on the passenger side of the manifold

It's cracked most of the way down front to rear must have pushed it a little much I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did now I have to find an intake for the truck that can hold the boost and might as well get an aluminum one this kinda sucks won't be able to bring to track until its fixed also may be case of unusually rich afr dual to a boost leak on the passenger side all 4 cylinders oops

Hemi and 12psi not good for very long good thing I caught it now and not when it blows up

 

It's cracked on the passenger side all 4 cylinders oops

Ouch....:ermm: Good catch Keith. Maybe, Ebay for the 6.1 intake manifold.

 

Also does anyone know where there might be a reasonably priced 6.1 intake I will take anything aluminum at this point

 

Good catch, that could have lead to serious problems.

 

I'm looking at getting this intake and having bungs for injectors put into it can get for $300 and bungs for $32 and use my rails eddy can help me out with this gotta love a machine shop friend

 

Way better price wise compared to the 6.1!

 

418bee is selling his Indy modman intake on nadodge.

Your darell on the other forums?

 

I'm not on that forum but that intake would Deff work for me you think he will answer a pm on here I would buy that one for sure

 

Rolling in neutral eng off in a bank drive thru heard this guy making alot of noise good thing I caught it now and not when it sheered off at the track changed both of them for good measure life time warranty with grease fittings

 

heard this guy making allot of noise, changed both of them for good measure

:whistling::ermm:

 

Good catch Keith.

 

Nice find, dem banks are good for something.

 

Yes he is...
