Have you put any miles on the truck yet? I ask because I'm curious about the heat build up from the coil packs under your faux valve covers. I know it was brought up previously but now that the truck is done I was just curious if you had noticed anything related to that.

My brother is running some of the later style coils that have heat sinks on the top of each of them but he did some testing with one of my sets which don't and he noticed mine without sinks were noticeably warmer than his set with sinks. Considering I've got two straight six covers waiting for this same mod, I was hoping I didn't need to buy the heat sink style coils on top of it!

BTW, I saw the truck at SEMA as well and it was probably my favorite of the show because I had followed the build here on the forum!
