Maybe I'll get some tunes from Troyer or JDM.
Man your truck is so 'Death Race'. Get that HE out of there.

Here's mine, it sits on the tranny cooler. I got a KC as well.

Ha! I think I got the same one as you! Mine looks just like that. Did you have to get the air out of the hoses when you switched the coolant? That's the only thing I'm worried about.

Yeah that's the original HE flipped up side down.

No problems with air in the system, I have. KC and Snout cooler integrated, the pump pretty much takes care of it.

The built Manley 09 5.4 3v? I collected all the parts secondhand new and had an engine guy do all the machine work on the block (Need 3k over for Manley pistons and an Alignment home for ARP mains)
