    I don't think the blue loom looks all that bad. It's a blue truck with blue components where parts of the engine were painted blue. It's a whole blue theme - it's not like he is a kid with a Honda, a CAI, and a few stickers who decided some random blue loom would look super cool. I mean there's a sense of order and intent. It's a theme. Plus we all know the truck has substance to back it up.

    I mean who hasn't looked back at what was "in style" and said "what the fuck were we thinking" well I wonder that sometimes myself when I look at old pictures of the truck. Not to mention as I already stated I was like 22 years old when I did all the crap, you live and learn.

    That's my exact thought when I see old photos of my truck with 20's and stock brakes.

    Just to be fair, not that I expect anyone to be. Here is a picture of the LS swap when I finished. Like I have said, this is a test-mule, and things get rearranged a lot. But I do have a new one in the works. Maybe a little less clutter, because it will be built from what I have learned.

    Of course, the PVC intake is original, and check out that radiator hose.

    I just don't like to see anybody kicked for being different, we all have our own ideas.. After all our motors are yesterdays technology..
    I just put $10,000 in my motor which i'm waiting on installing till i feel better.. To get decent Hp. ,,
