    Wow! Great work on that compressor outlet->IC setup. That is really slick!
    Will the intercooler have soft rubber mounts so that it can move with the engine?

      I hope to have it solidly mounted along with the engine. Does that work?

      And yes! Lots of hours into it.

        Couple other mock up pictures I found. epymu5uh.jpgje3yvagu.jpgmu3ytupy.jpg

        So I got this stubby thing for my torch(actually bought every option) and also ordered a new gas lens setup. Currently only have a 3/32 gas lens but I like 1/16

                  I hope to have it done this summer! Haha. I could get this thing running and driving in two weeks but I need to save money for the chassis... aka roll cage and coilovers/suspension bits and wheels..

                  July 4th I promise to burn a set of tires off. comprende?

                    So I ended up ordering 24' of 6061 t6 1.250 OD .065 wall to use for coolant line. I will be connecting it to the thermostat an other various joints with silicon so there is flex and such. Not sure if I will be running it out of

                    the cabin or not. Should be quite a bit of updates soon..

                        Thank you sir! There will be lots and lots and lots of fab coming from me in the coming months. If there was more time, I would be building a lot more, but I am in a rush... And then there is the excuse of the damn cold.
