    I will post a few if you guys cant be to judgmental.:) However constructive criticism is welcome, I learned a lot for the next time. Nothing fancy but this one works well and very simple total cost was about $140. Mig welded with miller 210. welds would have been much better looking if I had a tig available to me. Regardless its simple yet functional.

    Truck is still running well on 8psi with stock fuel system. I did get a few vids of a few pulls for you guys but haven't had time to upload them. had a few wiring issues with it due to the wires being old and brittle that are being fixed now other than that everything is well and Ill work on getting a small vid put together for you guys.

    Welcome,
    Im in upstate SC, nice build man! Super clean, Im currently trying to get my 84 ready for a 5VZ swap. Maybe one day we can setup a NC SC Toyota meet, I would love to see that thing in person.
