geuss its time for an update


azooooz finally got the engine from kurt , it had an issue with the blower , but procharger will be fixing it (soon i hope ) . its a 427 stuck a smallish F3 blower.
like i mentioned , there were "slight" changes to the plan
azooooz decided to swap cars since he wasn't "feeling" the red one

so he went and got another one from a local which already was built by jung performance in florida with a full cage and big *** turbo and a built and stroked 302 ( stroked to 347 or something like that).
here she is :



fuel tank and water tank:






intercooler :





and the interior :



so after he aquired the the car , he got rid of the ford engine and other stuff dangling from it, and proceeded to install the new engine and see how we would shoe horn it in



me thinks the intercooler will be a "problem"



hood clearance :



so after placing the engine where we wanted it ( basically mounted it on the kmember and old mounts and then figured out where to place the motor plate mounts - the class we race in requires motor mounts ) we started looking at how to fabricate the headers.

kurt told us that we need a minimum or 2-3/8 primaries into a 5 inch collector inorder for the engine to breath properly .

so we started mocking up the headers , and it was clear that they won't be going under the car , so it was front facing header time headers will face forward and exit from the sides just in front of the tires.

so far the driver side is almost done :







and here is how it sits as of yesterday :



i also have to mention that the plan is to run the intercooler inside the car and not use the one infront of the engine ( we'll revisit the intercooler when we put the nose back on to see what can be done ).

so next up is the fabbing of the passenger side header, figuring out where to mount the oil tank, fabbing up a new fuel cell up front for the belt driven pump, finalizing the motor plate mounts

just noticed , sorry for the fuzzy pics

also forgot to mention that the car has a full interior , including back seats ! the pictures above show the interior in a "dissassembled" state.
