Well, been a while in settling things in and deciding on the next step for Tank.
Decision is made and now just to save up for it - snorkel will be coming off as well as airbox to be replaced by 4" stainless snorkel and custom high flow box from Richie (Radiusfab). That should sort the air restriction.
Next is water/meth injection to give more "shazam" (lol) and cool down intake temps. The bonnet grills will be going in at the same time to assist airflow through the engine bay to keep things cooler, and will be winding some timing back into the top end along with another dyno tune - aiming for about 220-230HP and 600+nm at the rear wheels ... that's a lot of stick from the old TB42e ...
All going to plan, I intend to swap out the diff gears (probably for 4.325:1's) and get super flex arms for the front end also ...
In the meantime, he needs some serious TLC on body and accessories, so will chip away at those first and getting it looking the business again - strip bullbar and powder coat, new flares, electrics (windows, door locks, etc), and of course a new torque converter if this additive stuff doesn't work ...
Looking for a new drivers seat if anyone knows of one going - brackets on mine have snapped and the 20l jerry can behind the seat is not quite cutting the mustard! lol. I'll put that requirement up in the wanted section also ...
He's looking weathered and worse for wear (especially after the last couple of outings) ...
