Yep, 4" turbo back, no muffler no DPF nothing but a big ass tube. Tunes are IDP.

My project is either to polish out a set of ten holes or an upper intake and a set of valve covers. Maybe even the power steering bracket/housing.

Does Innovative have a break down of there tunes? I think Spartan has out a 350 tune now that's suppose to be pretty insane.

If you want I can come take that POS TKO from you. I'll even lift it for you, that way you don't have to lift it and strain your back....

Spartan tunes arent custom. I wouldt trust **** from them. Not to mention the owner is a complete dick. Innovative tunes will make up to 750rwhp, but it doesnt make a difference cause the stock rods wont handle that kind of power. if a IDP tune says 300 it means 300rwhp unlike spartan. And IDP tunes all apsects of the truck, shift points, line pressure, as well as non WOT driving conditions.

I see, I haven't spent a lot of time reading up on specific tuners. A buddy has the 350 in his 08, I was just curious how idp compared.

Spartan was the first to release the canned tunes for the 6.4s IDP is the **** when it comes to all things diesel. Our trucks can run 12's fuel only with 37's on an IDP tune, havnt seen spartan tunes do that.

Well my 84 has some surface rust and some interior work needs to be done, but I'm not sure which of those to do first since the paint job'll cost more but is more important to me at the time. I don't plan on doing any major work under the hood yet since it still has the Essex motor in it and I can't afford to drop tje 5.0 in this winter. So everything I'll be doing is simply cosmetic.

I have a laundry list of little projects to carry out on my 88. I took my driveshaft out a few days ago and discovered that a front universal was the source of a vibration I've been suspect of for some time. I'm waiting on a bit of extra funding after the holidays to move that forward for now. I'm also planning on blacking the center caps I have on my Centerline Razors to give them a touch more balance to their look. I'll be inspecting the front ball joints after I wrap up the u-joint and aligning the front end and I need the driver's side seat frame welded and braced. Aside from that, just gonna be working on some cosmetics involving regluing the felt on my vanity mirrors (any suggestions on what adhesive I should shoot for?), Some 86 or Cobra/SVO lenses (once I find some spare housings) and, pending a nice tax return, perhaps a new coat of paint for my pony.

Here's a quick photoshop of my idea for the rims and their original look...

Body work, rebuild the rear end, put in Anti-roll bar, Re-wire nitrous set up, maybe have my TKO gone threw and put a good shifter on it.

Stever89 · Nov 29, 2010

Mini starter, new back tires and 3.73 gears (not necessarily in that order)

Indeed!

The list is long...
The car went to Team Z in Taylor, MI November 16th.
While there it is getting...anti roll bar, in-floor subs, torque boxes welded and reinforced, Team Z's Upper and lower controls, front springs and any other suspension part that needs to be replace.

Meanwhile...I just finished the garage, painted the ceiling and walls. A lot of cleaning and getting rid of stuff.

When the car comes back, going to be a long winter in the garage.
-Yank the engine and trans.
-Heads go off to AFR for warranty. Hopefully upgrading to AFR 205 or using the Dart 195
-prime and paint all new metal from teamZ, body color floor and underneath.
-new clutch, steel bell housing
-going thru trans myself for simple rebuild back to stock spec. Also fix slight oil leak in case.
-install new fan controller in fender
-While the interior is this far down should upgrade to black...anyone have a complete black interior in good condition they want to sell cheap LOL. If nothing else carpet will get a trip to car wash.
-Drop fuel tank add sump and new inline fuel filter.

Think that about covers everything
