Worked on getting the twins assembled today... what a PITA! There just isn't much room to do anything and the fit is so dependant on all the factors being just right. I also polished out the S400 compressor and still need to build the cold pipe....

Oh, BTW......

Looks the holiday screwing off is over also and I feel that I'm about fished out now. So I started working on some miscellaneous stuff before diving back into the suspension!

Gauges....

WOW.... is that a F600 panel with the center cut out with your own sheet work? That is super slick.. I'd like to do the same.

I think that was the stock F250 panel.... heck, it's been so long I forgot what it originally looked like! Yes, I cut the center out and fitted a new .125 aluminum center section.

Nice. I thought it was a f600 cluster becaues of the chrome inside but now that i think about it the originals probably do have the chrome too.

That hydroboost is a 91-97 F250/F350 application.... just had to rotate the bracket 180* and re-drill two of the holes. My peddle height will be about the same as it was.
