    Once all body work and bumpers are done, it's going to get a new paint make over. All black... not sure if I want to go flat black like the hot rods or BSP again.. :D

    I like that truck! I Don't say that often. Your truck does the 1st-gen proud. I would love to know what a difference those headers made if any.

    They were my first step to prep the motor for the Super charger I have yet to find .. haha

    They made it a little louder and a little more snappier climbing RPM's.

    I tried to change the front O2 sensor and broke the mounts so a set of headers were actually cheaper than a stock replacement manifold.

    Could have always welded but.. it was an excuse haha

    Well they just add coolness to that truck-I sure wouldn't mind them on my truck-your build gets me thinking. Thanks for sharing the process!
