    Lil update got it tuned finally and I put down 315whp 325wtq on a Mustang dyno and on a Dynojet it was 370whp 406wtq. Very pleased with the results. but I'm searching for more power down low.

    Sorry no vids it was a last min thing and I didn't have a camera with me.

    Go for it... You should buy your old truck back and swap a 84-89 4runner body on there.

    BTW Thanks again for the center cap.

    Do it... I loved rolling around with the top off when I had mine. It would be that much cooler slammed to the ground drift around a corner with the top off and full of passengers :)

    Here you go SD...

    Lil update: Weighed my ride over the weekend and was purely shocked at the weight. Prebody swap I was 2891 with the 4runner body I'm at 3180. Just doing lil things here and there to make it complete. Got higher spring rate up front (was 565 bumped to 650) and waiting to find a 1 ton front sway bar.

    Any one got one forsale PM me...

    What is the compressed and extended length of the front coil overs. Do you know what series QA1's they are? The truck looks awsome and I'm trying to get everything together to do a 4 door.
