So proud of your work quality and attention to detail. I'm 74 now and have Tig welding since I was 18. I retired , but still building Mopar trucks as my toys. Go ahead run those tips out the back after notching the bumper. I'm really enjoying your build since I owned a Gen 2 Ram years ago. I have homes on both the South Carolina and Georgia coasts and would like to drive down and visit you sometime.

Get a bucket if ice and water and keep cold wet rags in it and cool your welds as you go. Stainless is bad to warp and wet rag cooling will solve your problem. You did a great job. I built a stepside 78 Ram years ago with a 500 cu. inch RB engine with Indy heads. I build the entire exhaust system from 304 stainless including headers and mufflers. It was a real exercise in patience, but well worth it. I just bought a 2015 Ram R/T and have an unlimited budget. I ordered a 4/6 drop kit from IHC so I can use long spring and shock geometry up front. I don't care about drag racing, but want the truck to be fast and fun on the highway. Motor will be 448 NA. Brakes will likely be Wilwood 6 piston frons and 4 piston rears. Exhaust will a Stainless works with cats and quiet mufflers. I searched for a long time to find an R/T with Ramboxes that also matched the Crystal Granite color of my new Limited Ram. I enjoy your blog. You remind me of myself when I was younger.

Most definitely going to be faster than a stock dakota rt. You have 100 horsepower and 50 extra ft lb of torque, plus the 5.7 doesn't suffocate itself past 3000 rpm. With the ecu tuning itself, I can see it running about 400 horsepower and 450 torque. Maybe a little more because of the headers.
