heres a quick update on the truck.. it's got nearly 2k miles on the new engine.. and it's now around 7k on the new trans. both are doing amazing.

the Speed Density setup is slightly better than it was originally after the engine was installed.. so it does learn.. if i had 1.6 roller rockers the truck may be ok on speed density. but im keeping the 1.72's.

the rear end is gonna need a rebuild before to long.. it has a small whine at times. fluid is full and good.. checked that at work a few days ago. already knew the limited slip clutches were toast..

removed the decals off the rear window for the performance parts.. tired of haters arguing with me about what i have and what i dont have.. the decals are still on the truck and you'll see below where.. it's a neat not thought of spot. really neat for car shows.

pictures..

It looks great man, but your headlights need buffed lol, just saying. Other than that your truck is pretty bitchin'

tried to buff em out before they are way to far gone... trying to save for a complete set of clear euro headlamp set.. but smoked black.

That would look cool and that sucks though.

I don't know, Man. I'm liking the "White Knight" look of this beast right now. You might want to think about going with the crystal headlight set (http://www.ebay.com/itm/CHROME-HEAD-LIGHTS-DEPO-SIGNAL-BUMPER-PARKING-CORNER-92-96-FORD-F150-F250-BRONCO-/400454684020?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A1995|Make%3AFord|Model%3AF-150|Submodel%3AXL&hash=item5d3cf58d74&vxp=mtr).
Those are the chrome ones. I plan on getting the black ones (http://www.ebay.com/itm/92-96-F1-2-350-Bronco-Black-Headlights-Bumper-Signal-Corner-Lights-Combo-Set-/160983079750?rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222002%26algo%3DSIC.FIT%26ao%3D1%2 6asc%3D163%26meid%3D6802558874568400400%26pid%3D10 0005%26prg%3D1088%26rk%3D1%26sd%3D160979689107%26) , myself.
Regardless of your bottom line decision, the truck looks fantastic. Glad to see more kickass '92-'96 models.

I'm going with the white with black accents as you can tell from my black taillights

Ah, barely noticed the black tail-lights with the angles posted. That's awesome, too! I'm going to end up red with black accents. I wish those were reversed, but I'm working with what I have, haha.
I'm getting a new grille, bezels, headlights and taillights.
I'm going to put cab lights on it, too, because I just love those, haha.
What other visual aesthetics are you going to invest in?
