This picture shows the custom alternator mount that was necessary because of the Procharger and electric water pump.

 


 

They say a picture is worth a 1060HP!

 


This is one of the cleanest mostly stock interior very nicely done.

 


Sweet!

 


 

This was the easy side to build and all the tube lengths were within 1/4".

 


Same side showing the routing.

 


The drivers side was a lot more difficult to route with steering and master cylinder.

 


Heres the finished passenger side before coating.

 


Relocated alternator mount.

 


Ditto.

 


 

Purrrty coating prior to install into the car.

 


 

Mark how many Hot Wheels do you have?

 


 

Passenger side header installed also the blow off valve and piping.

 


 

Very neatly wired and plumbed. Mark you should install cable or phone wire or something.

 


 

The exhaust is 3" which was on the car and I adapted it for now. Can you say 4" oval for the future.

 


 

The mufflers are Dynomax 3"in/out with turn downs just ahead of the axle.

 


This view shows the engine restraint that I built tying the motor from the Procharger bracket to the frame.

 


Here is another view with the picture oriented correctly.

 


This is the intake tubing but will probably be changed soon in place for an intercooler to reduce the chance of detonation and to make more HP.

 


This view shows some of the pipes on the drivers side where I had to go around the frame.

 


 

Even though the pipe had to go around the frame I was still able to keep the tuned length +/- 1/4".


 

This is the passenger side tube route going around the a-arm.
