I think without the caps seems to fit the cars mood better. And I haven't tried to figure out trim rings yet. I like beauty ring and caps and haven't ventured down that road yet.

Appreciate it

I picked up my next project(s) that I'm super psyched about. I bought a 1966 Dodge W200 Power Wagon Crew cab roller! I've been looking for a 66 crew for about 16yrs. It's only the 3rd one I've ever seen for sale. Title is correct and matches VIN, Data Plate and Frame stamping. Original 13,000...

Cars 99.9% done. Rear main weeps a bit and the speedo cable is jumpy every once in awhile (due to a VSS jumper for the TCM). I'll take care of those next year. Car is currently in hibernation.

Got the intake painted. Just waiting on a couple AN fittings and a phenolic open spacer. I caught a thread on 1 of the rear AN fittings and destroyed it.

Took measurements and started drilling.

Go the intake pulled this last weekend.

I need to tidy up the Cuda asap. I'm currently on the lookout for my next project. I've even got the "War and Finance" department on board! Looking for a 65.5 or 66 Dodge sweptline W200 crew cab Power Wagon. So if anyone knows of one, please for the love of God, PM ME!!!

4th is keep driving it and playing with the EFI.

3. Install new rear shock plates to increase shock travel. I only have an inch of compression in the rear. So I grabbed a pair of AR engineering plates. Should drop the shocks 1.25-1.5" so I can stop bottoming out the shocks.

So think I have 4 items left to correct: 1. VSS jumper cable for speedo. See broken one above. 2. Trick flow intake. I haven't done the swap yet. I will this weekend. I have to pull the old M1 and measure height. They are close but I need to make sure. Trick flow is 5.125 and M1 is 5.??? Then I...

Just the timing of it. Oct and Nov of last year we had wicked fires here in Colorado. On my last drive there was ash falling everywhere. And I broke my jumper cable for the VSS for the OD.

Yeah. That's a 318 mount that had been drilled at some point. I have a about 5 mounts but not the one that came out? Here is the correct NO$ mount installed now.

Here's a pro tip! Make sure you use the CORRECT STUPID ENGINE MOUNT BRACKET! I had to buy an NO$ 340 mount. I don't even know where the mount that came out of the car went? It had the correct mounts when I pulled the engine but I put back in a stock 318 mount, whatever.

Had this rear it's ugly head. PITA, so I had to make a new fuel line between the EFI inlets.

I ended up washing and prepping for ceramic coat. I applied it myself using JaxWax products. Turned out good. Washing Prep spray and remover of all things After ceramic

Just a little update. Only got about 200 miles on it. Fixing little things. Still hibernating in the back of the garage at the moment. But I'll recap the last couple months. The EBAY fake battery caps swelled up. Seller sent new ones made out of a new material. No questions asked. So that was nice.

Thanks for the kind words. Just got my new Trickflow intake. Gotta get it measured up to make certain I can get the height the same. So there are no issues with the air box. Then drill and tap for the rear crossover coolant ports and add paint. 1. Why Dexcool? Dexcool was a mistake, I made...

E Existing at some point. Gotta take some measurements before I start drilling holes in it.

In case anyone was interested.

I feel like this is the wrong attitude?

Here's the screws and the adapter face painted. And mocked up. Waiting on female USB-A terminals, should be here tomorrow.

Still tidying things up. I got sick of the EFI data cable and phone charger cable strong all over the interior. So I ordered a USBC and USBA adapter. Currently plumbing that into the console. Just roughed in right now. I still have to terminate everything. Then clean everything up...

I used a little spray wax. But maybe I'll hit it with some coolant just to be safe.

I did. Went with a 3' super HD B&M. PITA to install but seems to line up in all the gears. Won't know until I drive it. I just installed it last night and only bench tested it. I attempted to go through and retighten the bumper bolts today. But when I unlocked the trunk, It didn't do anything...

Got the car washed a few days ago.

Pulled the cable and it's bound up so bad you can barely move it by hand. It has an extremely tight spot in it. So I had to order a new cable.

Still having shifter issues. Intermittent or randomly not getting a full stroke on 2nd to D or D to Neutral. I've go hours and hours into cable adjustment, bracket adjustment and lever fabrication. I've made 3-4 levers at this point, different lengths and heights. Still has issues. So I pulled...

Also adjusted the headlights and got them aligned.

Because of core is thicker, I had to space off the fan motor from the fan shroud. Which made me have to cut the rotor shaft on the fan in order to get fans and shroud to fit with the space I had available. Cut vs uncut
