Re: Project...praise the lowered
man you guys are making my view count sky rocket.i never imagined my build would have so much attention.i look forward to checking out the comments every day.thanks.
now on with the show,heres a peak of the intake cover i started to build.all stainless steel and will be fully functional as a ram air system.should get some attention peaking through the hood.i will also make a sheet metal fuel rail cover.something like the covers on the ls1`s http://i932.photobucket.com/albums/a...y/IMG_2885.jpg http://i932.photobucket.com/albums/a...y/IMG_2886.jpg http://i932.photobucket.com/albums/a...y/IMG_2888.jpg http://i932.photobucket.com/albums/a...y/IMG_2890.jpg |

Re: Project...praise the lowered
so if its going to work as a ram air..... your sheetmetal box/intake will house the filter also?
|
Re: Project...praise the lowered
i should have said it will be like a ram air/frech air system.if you look close in the pics you can see a duct i started to build over top of the throtel body .the plan is to run that into a housing/cover over a cone style filter.but like everything else i do on the build i will probably change my mind 10000 times haha.

Re: Project...praise the lowered
Just read through the whole thing and it is very similar to what I want to do!
I am in awe of your fabrication skills!!!!!! Amazing progress and I look forward to more updates! |

Re: Project...praise the lowered
geez, you sure have some awesome fab skills!! I can't believe how much work you've done on this thing! gotta see how this ends up. that shotgun intake is gonna look killer.

Re: Project...praise the lowered
Sweet idea man! I'm sure you'll get it tweaked to you liking. ;) Always do. I agree that polished ss shotgun style sticking out of the hood against that black is gonna be bad @$$!

Re: Project...praise the lowered
i did a little more tweaking and fine tuning today.with so many wires and hoses being housed under the cover it was a pain to get it adjusted right.so i dropped the front down as much as i can and moved it to the side more.i also had to shift the front clip to the passenger side a little to square it up with the hood.so now on with the hours of sand/polishing

Re: Project...praise the lowered

Re: Project...praise the lowered
beautiful build, your fabrication is amazing, do you mind if we ask what you do for a living?
|
Re: Project...praise the lowered
thanks guys.as soon as i get it polished like chrome i will snap another pic.
dont mind at all blueshark.im a welder but grew up doing body work with my father since i was knee high. |
Re: Project...praise the lowered
back at it today.this morning i was able to get the bed floor completely welded and buffed smooth ready for primer.now i can start making my front bed panel/compartment.then this afternoon i hand sanded my hillbilly engineered scoop until my arm was ready to fall off then it was on with the polishing.it has some low spots where it was tacked on the underside but when i was done polishing they didnt look nearly as bad.i still have some areas that need attention but i will wait for the final round because im sure its going to get dinged up.here is a couple of pics
