Re: Project Screamer - '72 GMC K2500 + DD 4-53T

Another DIY Project - Part 2

Got anger issues (I don't, I'm retired )? Here's a way to get them out - pounding the crap out of a piece of sheet metal. I decided to make the top of my air filter housing curved so I got out the hammer and sand bag and started pounding on the top. Here's what it looked like about half way through:

Here's what it looked like when I finished:

Here's the completed filter housing on the bench:

I'll install some flexible ducting between the inlet and core support so I will have a cold air intake.
