i like pics, things look great!, does the cut off switch actually shut the truck off or just disconnect the battery?
headers are sweet, i also like the steering wheel

it kills all power, thanks the steering wheel is kinda growing on me, but i might switch to a momo wheel

2 things:
I wonder what that heater box would look like painted white. Maybe it wouldn't pop out so much and draw your eye to it?

It doesn't look like you have enough room to install a steering shaft since the one header primary goes so close to it - does it fit and not rub when turning the wheel?

i don't want to take the time to paint it. i'm sure once everything is done it won't stand out so much.

mike at RPM is getting me the correct shaft, the headers require a special one;)
