Made good progress today. 
Got the crossover boxed. My buddy had some problems with his welder. After pluggin it in (220) with his big extension cord, it had some issues. He went and got his service truck with huge genset. Still had issues and then we found out it it was the cord. Pulled the truck closer and plugged directly in, worked fine then. After a six pack or so we got er done. :thumbsup:
Installed the serp belt accessories. The vacuum pump did not fit with the a/c delete due to the banks turbo manifold. I will hook the a/c compressor up in the future, so I did not want to put the vacuum pump where that goes. I went back to the cam driven vacuum pump and got that installed. (the accessories took me awhile to get right).
Cleaned up and installed the passenger side battery tray and airbox.
Figured out placement of fuel pump and racor filter. The racor is figgern huge and I will need to make a spacer to fit it on firewall where the box filter used to go.
Installed starter.
Still left to do;
Hook up turbo oil drain to pan.
Get down-pipe and crossover ceramic coated then installed.
Hook up all wiring.
Hook up power steering pump connections.
Fueling system.
Purchase and install exhaust from down-pipe back.
Hook up vacuum system.
Install radiator, front clip, cooling and heater hoses, and hood.
GO FAST!
I am sure there is more, but it felt REAL good to work on my truck again.
