shitty pics and wires just dangling but u neers get the idea
You can see the C-channel i used to mount the tank...its bolted to the spare tire hoist plate and then the tank is bolted to that. Did it C facing down cuz theres a welded nut up there and I wouldnt get it out :shrug:
I also made mouting brackets for the viair mount...just simple flat stock, bent 90* and bolted to the frame. The back side is bolted to the hitch, which I had to drill into. Mount is SOLID as fuck, viair makes good stuff. You can also see the valve manifold, thats used to fill and dump my helpers. It has ports for pressure sensors and thats where I plumbed mine for the bags. Peep the remote mount filter too :secret:
Here u can see the space, or lack of for valves n stuff. I plugged the port closest to the exhaust since I didnt want anything close to it. Then I have my 1/2" valve, tank pressure sender and a 1/4" 90* PTC fitting for the valve manifold. Tank has another fitting up top but I didnt use it and another on the leader hose end thats also plugged atm...ill probably add a remote quick disconnect later.
I'll get pics of the horns and finished install later. I finished this morning around 3am :yawn: But they dont hang lower than the hitch and are pretty much hidden from anywhere u look at it.
As far as wiring the compressor, I tapped into the 7-way harness constant power wire. All you gotta do is add a 30A fuse in the fuse box under the hood. My truck had a dummy maxi fuse in place, just pulled it out and replaced with a real one...BAM have power back there. For ground I just scraped on one of the crossmembers and used a self tapping screw. Relay is a 70A I got from ebay a while back when I did efans on my old ranger...they never failed me so I used my spare for this install...will carry a spare one with me tho. Everything is loomed and taped up, dnw any wires dangling :crossarms:

thx taylor :shake: that 444c fills up to 200 in no time, def a nice lil unit and only draws 23ish amps
hu: u neers making me blush
Cleaning n rebuilding. New stepper motors n bulbs. Then find someone to burn the right miles on it
heads are in my closet :nono: just havent had time.
Specs:
216/220
.030 243s
NNBS intake 87mm TB
LTs
50-100 shot of nawz (Only thing missing)
2700 converter
I either pop this neer and drop in a flat top 5.3 or lq9 "spec" motor with current goodies.

What compression will u be at? Will that intake still bolt up fine with those heads?
compression should be same if not a LIL bit higher with dished pistons...with flat tops ur at 10.2-10.5 territory iirc...still fine on pump gas. Intake bolts up fine with that shave
