I just spent a good 45 mins going over your build and I have to say it is very impressive. Lots of man hours and $$$ in it, but it's all worth it! Love the Whipple! If Ford wasn't so stingy on their warranty claims, I'd be sporting one! Great job on a great looking ride.
I really enjoy doing this stuff. There is some kind of supplemental warranty Wipple offers. I have no idea what it involves.
Put these in tonight. Figured now they kind of apply.

Go for it...The color would work a lot better yours then mine.
You have no idea. The beauty of the Whipple is its 100% reversible, if for whatever reason you want to return the truck to stock. The only part that got cut was one heater hose, and a pcv hose. Probably about $20 worth of parts max. No cutting, grinding or drilling.
Thanks for the kind words.
I'm charging up the Action Cam now, to maybe make a run out to the farm tomorrow morning. Need to get it mounted better this time so it doesn't have all that vibration.

Mike, are you planning on a custom dyno tune to really get it dialed in?

I went out the farm and he was irrigating. So no video today.
My local strip has test and tune tomorrow evening but temps will be in the 90s and I have yet to connect up and monitor, various PIDs as I should.
