Went for a long drive today. Weather is nice and the car is running very nicely.
Need to find someone to machine the slots my aluminum hood hinges so I can slide the hood back about another 3/8", its bottomed out on the back of the hinge. Gap is driving me nuts.Thats why the gap on the front of the hood bar looks off on the corner.

Looks good boss.
Couldn’t you just enlarge the holes with a Die grinder? [Reply]

I've never seen anything like it.
A dealer in Minnesota claimed it was the afm that caused it, said the valves must have worked when they weren't supposed to and allowed fuel to get into those cylinders and it exploded.

I love the look of the 19's. I'd consider trading my Raptor if I didn't have to give up horsepower and torque. Sucks that GM has nothing to compete with my little V6. I also really like the new GMC tailgate design.
Edit: I also love my 10-speed trans and that would be difficult to give up. [Reply]
