Water pumps fit and the Stellings headers are huge. Will know in a couple days what hatch we will need either a raised race hatch or a flat with scoops still debating.

Cutting out #6 drive holes nerve racking

We have been looking forward to this day as well a dreading it cutting the hole for #6 drives.
Checked 4 times , went to sleep, got up went out to the shop, looked again , spread the drives outward 1/2 '' , went back to sleep. re cked in the morning . all good , cut the holes . mounts are all cut , lowered the engines 2'' , alining the engines and installing mounts today and tomorrow.

Running into a hurdle , the shortest drive shaft is 10'', the dual stage sea pump is hitting the bulk head and still can't get the 10'' shaft in.

Extension boxes...

Thought about that too but moving the pump will fix it.

Then stop crying about it and do it!!

Hope you are well. Where is the boat nowadays?

I'm not crying we are moving the water pumps, Everyone doesn't have deep pockets like you do to drop 4-5K on boxes :). We are doing good still drilling crooked holes in the ground. Cat is still in FL. Really just got started rigging on it. We have the drive shafts fitted into the boat now , alternator is 2'' from bulkhead. This Cat was set up for crash boxes , they are 2'' shorter,, but that was then and now is now. All part of the process. Never give up just keep pecking away. Heading up to Kansas tomorrow to P/U the Cat puller.[ATTACH=CONFIG]502763[/ATTACH] How u been still in Big D?

We went to mount the starboard engine , the outer engine stringer was soft in 3 spots, did a test hole , was wet , Going to cut it out and build a new one , should take a day to rebuild, the other stingers are good

Looking good KC. Like that truck too!! I had a 07 Megacab dually and loved it. U get a handshaker or auto?

It's an automatic 2006 Laramie 4x4 Mega 5.9 cummings with 60K miles. Very hard to find a low miler like this with the 40/20/40 front seat so it seats 6. Looks like new. Only mods are air bags in the rear and leveling kit in the front. Flip over ball in the bed. Picked it yesterday in Kansas reset MPG got home and checked it was 18.9 MPG.
