I'll try to get some pics of the wiring for the lights and some pics of the exhaust , if i get home from work before it gets dark. The exhuast drivers side crosses over to pass side and y's into pass down pipe ,goes into single cat that is gutted out, and into a single inlet flowmaster with dual outlets then the pipes split off one to pass side and on to driver side and exit right before the rear tires. It is loud , i have been thinking of changing it but ,i don't know.

nice collection of vehicles! i would love to get my hands on a 454SS!!!! gotta agree the hoe needs a little higher stance but it looks good! and that rack is the best set-up i've seen so far. is it a defender rack?

The rack is made by SURCO , with the light mounting kits and spare tire kit, got it from Summit. The alternator is Powermaster and it came with everything to mount it from Summit also, drivers side bolts up stock and pass side had and adapter to use stock bracket ,very easy install. You have to use 2 guage wire from alternator to battery. I also ran a 2 guage ground from the alternator case to battery. I know 12 psi is alot but as far as i know only thing internally is the 1.6 roller rockers. I was going to do a thumper cam last spring but decided against it, i did the rockers instead. when I first got it and stopped it from leaning out 6 psi seemed kinda dull when I started turning up the boost with some spare pullies then added the msd boost timing master. It really started coming alive. When i was at the dragstrip last racing a friend from work vette. I snapped the rear u joint and yoke stalling it up waiting for the green. First run was 15.5 just hitting the gas pedal, second run was a 15.3 i brake torqed it a little. 3 rd run when it snapped, i really wanted to beat him to the 60ft. So i stalled it up pretty high the boost started to build and boom never even moved. I have since installed a driveshaft loop and made in USA ,spicer u-joints and yoke. But i will never stall it that much again. It makes a ton of torque on the bottom first gear is crazy and the chirps to 2nd pretty good.

My friend used his AAA to tow it home, i removed the driveshaft put it in 4 wheel drive and pulled it into the driveway. With the broken yoke i cut and turned it down on a lathe and made it into a plug. If i happen to break one again the middle of the desert , i can at least pull the driveshaft and install the plug to keep the oil in and drive slowly in 4 wheel drive. Driving slowly is better then walking.
