Spot- 2002 2500 4x4 5.9 V8

So here is a little info about my truck. It started out as a Florida Wildlife Commission truck based at the Yellow River WMA in Crestview Florida. At Yellow River it must have sat under a tree because it is covered in sap and little rust spots hence the name. I bought it from the state auction in September 2015.

I'm currently having a rebuilt motor installed.

A list of mods I have bought and will be installed with the new motor-
-Volant Intake 16959
-Volant Ram Air Scoop 36859
-PaceSetter Shorty Headers 70-1315 painted VHT Flameproof Silver
-1/4" aluminum plenum plate my brother water jeted for me
-Stant 45358 SuperStat 180 Degree Thermostat
-Superchips 3815 (I'm not sure which tune I'll use yet)

I replaced the stock muffler with Summit Racing® 2-Chamber Race Mufflers SUM-630168 - Free Shipping on Orders Over $99 at Summit Racing
Summit Racing® Single Chamber Race Mufflers SUM-630145 - Free Shipping on Orders Over $99 at Summit Racing

So its 3" all the way except 6 or 7 inches behind the cat. I figure those mufflers together equate to about a Flowmast 50 but about half the price.

Ah man if you could afford a 12 valve swap right now, this is the time to do it. You already have a 3/4 ton too so it's less work than converting a half ton.

Still waiting on the shop to get the motor in. Picked this up off eBay a Superchips 3815 its vin locked just waiting on pay day to unlock it.

Got it back. Installed headers, intake, and a front receiver hitch.
