Entire setup up front is soooo sick. So clean, nicely done

whats going to be your plan of attack for when it rains since the air filters are going to be in direct contact with water

^^^Leave it parked in the garage lol. Its only a toy to take out when I feel like it, it hasn't seen rain in six years. Not that we get much in AZ anyway.

Diggin it Brian..

did you switch to a different can (the one one the pass side) or was that PSC unit for a vacuum pump (looks like you took it out but i saw some big -an fittings)?

McNord

PSC unit is for the power steering, its not installed yet. I had it in place to make sure it was going to clear everything & be able to have the can higher than the pump & have the hood close lol. I needed to make sure everything is running good before I install the new pump, it requires a pretty elaborate break in. That will hopefully be sometime in the next week or two.

what made you go with that instead of the turn one?

McNord

iTrader: (1)

Didn't know about it, but now haven seen & gotten my hands on the PSC system I'm happy I went with it, has great reviews & is a very quality assembly. Not that the Turn One isn't but I have been fighting power steering issues with this car since almost day one so I may have gone a little overboard but well worth it! Plus its very similar to the one my dad & I have been using in the open wheel car for 10+ years with no issues.

McNord what material did you use for your breather setup? Do you need a break to bend the stuff? I'm looking to fab up something simple to feed air from the opening in the front bumper to my tb. Like a smaller version of what you have then a tube connecting the tb directly to the fabbed airbox.

Its just aluminum sheet metal & I didn't have a break or anything. I just used the leading edge of my work bench & a couple 2x4's & a mallet to make the bends. A break would have been nice though.

I'm not a bog fan of that project but I sure can respect the time and craftsmanship needed. Wouldn't it have looked smoother to have that top piece of sheet go up to those top mounting points then straight across to the radiator support? The way you have it seems like there will be a gap under this top inside of the bumper. It's nice to see that Burkhart piece tho. What's the weight difference between that and the factory pieces?

McNord

iTrader: (1)

Actually I tried that but I kept running into issues with the latch mechanism & it looked a little funny going back up to meet the nose after the dip for the latch & all. Don't know the weight difference, didn't think to weigh it but it feels quite a bit lighter.

Oh that makes sense. You gonna paint that green bar in your grill black or just leave it? I'd be rattlecanning it!

McNord

iTrader: (1)

Not sure yet, need to be able to see the car from a little further away than in my garage. If I leave it it will match my calipers, emblems, cage, etc... I also have a new custom emblem on the way that should go nicely.

Thanks! I got the idea for the latch area from your build lol.

just curious, what made you decide to do the katech valve covers/coil brackets vs. relocating the coils under the cowl?

McNord

iTrader: (1)

Always liked the look of the Katech valve covers & this pic is what convinced me to keep the coils on top rather than trying to hide them.
