    Intake, exhaust, lift. Typical stuff.
    You can get a hypler blink relay for cheap though. Just replace the old relay:

    $17 Electronic Flasher, 3 Terminal I.S.O. (EP35C)

    you can also take apart the flasher relay and drill out one of the soldered connections and it stops the hyper blink for free. But it then won't detect a burnt out bulb. So I just have to check ur lights every once in a while.

    I dug it. The hardest part i have is cutting it down to 5 minutes or so. Current one I'm working on is around 10 mins long mostly because I feel bad cutting my buddies trucks out.

    Changed it's oil, a few thousand overdue but I wasn't low and I haven't added any since it's last change.
    Looked like straight coffee when it came out though, the new oil was almost invisible on the dipstick compared to the old.

    Got some goodies in the mail today (gallon 85w/140 Lucas, 5quarts 5w/30 redline, and an OEM front diff drain plug). Might wait a week or two to change the oil since I got it a little early.

    ECGS recommends using 85/140 non synthetic with their gear setups/ARB. I was using 75/90 redline before but I figured I better use what they recommend. (Bayareataco uses 85/140 too iirc)

    Got everything back together after installing my Doug thorley headers. Easily one of the worst jobs I've done on my truck. Removing the stock manifolds and cross over pipe is the hardest part. If I wouldn't have gotten them for so cheap or didn't have a SC, I probably wouldn't have bothered with them. However, they look great and give the exhaust a bit of a deeper tone. I still have my stock cat and a 18" magnaflow dumped before the axle. Throttle response feels better. I need to really start doing some tuning now...
