Re: 1964 GMC 3/4 ton build :D

Ok got some more work after playing with a few things decided to reuse the bottom of the heater box sibce the abd was being a literal PIA!!! but looking like I will get close to what the stock air filter size if for the truck. Luckily the k&n filters flor more than the factory ones so I can go a bit smaller and make it work May not gain any horsepower doing this but hell with my gears who needs more hp lol!!!! Take a look at my process on the bottom box. I got a piece of 3 in od exhaust pipe to make a tub to keep any (if any) wayer out of the engine intake hose setup. I alooking at the inlet air vent and have some 1/16 inch steel plate to make a cover/air tunnel to help keel water out of the filter setup and if lucky act as a ram air since the air is coming in from the wiper cowl panel to side air vents in the truck. I am planning on sealing the passenger side one since I will have aur conditioning in the truck.
