What did you do to your Raptor today?

[TrxOutlawz]

Tried in vain to put the 5mil stroker together. :'(

Patience my friend,  it will all come together real soon...

Put the Prodesign air filter kit in and hooked up the Powercommander and mapped it.  Now to get a exhaust and remap.

Air, its just a minor detail which is easily fixed, it WILL be together before next weekend (provided the machining is done).

Finished up the build, AGAIN. It finally runs. Now it is time to get them dialed in.

Good,   does this mean a test and tune day at the dunes?

Last nite, I adjusted my valves (Tight on intake, exhaust was fine)  Painted my sand rims black.  Tonight I'll be doing a full oil change, plus a final cleaning for Walden this weekend.

For the rims, did you use the engine enamel?? I heard that was the best stuff to use....

I used the brake caliper stuff, we'll see how it holds up.  My buddy used the stuff for bumpers and it worked good too.

Ok, I just ordered a rear set of Comp cut drag wheels with 22x11-8 tripple buff haulers in black, forgeting my front blue labels are silver  So, I gotta paint my fronts, just not sure what type of paint to use.

are they a gloss or flat black??  my buddies turned out nice with the flat black bumper paint.  I'll try and take some pics of mine tonight of a gloss.

They come in tonight so Im not sure, but I think they are a gloss black. Yeah, see if you could get some pics up later, that would be cool 

[air]

Don't worry, if you wanted flat black it will only take a few trips to the dunes to achieve that.   :grin_nod:

[Gunz]

I took off the Haulers and swapped them with some new Edges I bought this morning.


I also changed out my bent stock gear shifter, for a "ProDesign" shifter.





...and last, but not least, I fiddled with my throttle some.
