thanks, I'm hoping for at least 400 HP out of this which shouldn't be too unreasonable I would think.

[KnightMare]

Nice Rhyno Lined dent - but on the flip side - it looks a hell of a lot better.

OT question - can you fit a sheet of drywall back down there with the tail gate down?

yes and no, the tailgate opening is fine and the drywall will stick about a foot off the tailgate, but the drywall will be sitting on top of the wheel wells.

Have you put tires on since the paint job on the wheels? I have a feeling that ****'s going to scratch the first time they put a tire machine to it..
