    After talking to my tranny guy here in Tx. I decided to go with the extra tranny cooler. Today I put the a/c and cooler on the rad and ran the lines. Maybe just maybe this truck will see the road next summer.

    After the test flights are completed, you may like to give a run or two with 185 lb of ballast in the passenger seat...

    Hey Buzz4041 looks like your well equipped with a lift, that would be a real nice addition to any shop.
    I was down to Corpus Christi this pass weekend playing in a Seniors softball tournament to benefit Toys for Tots, it netted a few hundred toys. I see your using a engine that belongs in the truck unlike my chevy.
