Got three of these for Christmas

 

[BoondocK5]

Oil pan, accessories

 

[BoondocK5]

The 6.0 wiring harness,

 

[BoondocK5]

Friggin' broken exhaust studs

 

[BoondocK5]

Mark VI throttle body, and a new oil pump

 

[BoondocK5]

Pulled the guts out of the oil filter bypass, and plugged the oil cooler ports

 

[BoondocK5]

Mmmmmm, headers on the 8.1/496

 

[BoondocK5]

Because I am running a Drive by cable, as opposed to Drive by wire. I had to change PCM's. The original wouldn't support a IAC, or TPS

 

[BoondocK5]

Found out that the 8.1/496 had an oil consumption issue.
Since they don't have a conventional PCV system. I added on. If anyone is interested in how I did it. Ask me, I'll share...

 

[BoondocK5]

Building the custom harness for 8.1, using the 6.0 harness. Good times

 

[BoondocK5]

More wiring harness work

 

[BoondocK5]

More harness work

 

[BoondocK5]

Mmmmmmm, Offroad Design goodness

 

[BoondocK5]

welded in the O2 bungs

 

[BoondocK5]

O2 sensors, installed

 

[BoondocK5]

DIY4X Competition Dash, with all the goodies.

 

[BoondocK5]

I had to do something about the header to plug wire clearance issue. Spark plug socks! Good to 1800°, we'll see...

 

[ZooMad75]

Signed on for the 8.1 goodness.

Man that’s a pile of sketi for the harness, you got way more patience than I do. Even for a cheap sob like me the time spent was something I didn’t have so I paid for a new harness built by pros. But if you got the time it’s a huge savings. Plus you’ll know every stinking inch of the harness.

Should be pretty fun once it’s up and running. Which accessory drive setup are you running?
