Wow, nice!!!!!!!

Sorry about the black one brother. Atleast the motor looked to be protected. You replaced the truck, can't replace you!

What makes you like the intercooler exposed so much?
Oh, nevermind, I see your space is very limited, lol.

The engine bay I've been working on abit to clean it up and hide or get rid of some of the wire's for a nice clean look. I got one more black coupler still coming to replace the red one.
