    Man I keep missing replies to my threads, I have notifications turned off by accident!

    Yes it's a satin black, Duplicolor high heat satin black to be exact. It smells great when the engine gets hot, the paint basically cooks on (in a good way) and it smells for a while till it's done "cooking".

    Same smell you get with header paint when you cook the headers

    I just got my title and insurance and everything today for this beast, have been working on electrical (sound system, gauges, etc). It's hard to work/go to school/do this. I will be posting more pics soon!

    Got everything in, got the headers to clear... only thing I am missing is the lower bolt on the AC compressor, that seems fine. That and the very bottom bolt on the bracket that connects the engine block to the pass. side of the tranny. It's impossible to line that bolt up on the 3500 without some big work to the mount.

    One of the things that is buggin me now is that the headers hit the firewall a bit, they vibrate somewhere on it around 1700-2500 RPM's... I need to get something done about it.

    Got an exhaust on too, 2.5" back, no cat, to dual 2.5" hooker aerochambers...
    thats nice and a job well done
