Also, on the higher engine temp - did you mount the temp gauge in the intake manifold or the head? I have found that gauges mounted in the heads usually indicate a hotter temp.

Nice work getting this truck up and going. I love the attention to detail in your trucks. Good luck man.

The self adjuster is there, you just can't see it in the picture. The temp gauge sender wasn't moved which is why i'm puzzled with the rise in running temp. I'm going to try and get a vacuum fill tool and see if there's still air in the system, only 35 miles or so since the install. Thanks for the kind words, we're doing our best.
