Do you have any pics how the exhaust goes under the frame & out the fender? I'm wanting to run a single pipe out the passenger side like that but it looks like I'll need to do a lot of cutting. I think that looks much better than going through the front bumper. Thanks

In this pic you can somewhat see a gray/ white area in the wheel well behind the tire. There is a piece of metal that sticks out there on both sides that is spot welded from the factory, we removed that and also had to modify my kmember some( BMR Turbo) and you can see where the pipe was notched for the steering and we also did that for the rack some also. 4'' tube, no motor mounts.

I sold the intake,throttle body, Intercooler, tranny cooler and a few other odds and ends. Will probably have my PRC LS3 6 bolt heads for sale soon.
Probably going to switch to a LS7 head (not sure on brand yet) and going with the MAST two piece intake with a Wilson 105 TB and a berry motorsports billet elbow. I've got the elbow already, waiting on the Throttle body and I need to get the intake ordered cause I was told it's going to be a long wait. Which is fine cause unless a small miracle happens I doubt I will be running this year. With repairing the engine damage and upgrading the few things I want it's going to be a few pennies
but when I'm done it will be what I've wanted to do the past two years but countless other problems ( mainly pouring more money into the endless billet pit of a tranny) haven't allowed that.
Will also finally be going air/water with a Chiseled Intercooler along with there tranny cooler!!! Can't wait for this.
Anyways I will try to update as I get more progress. Honestly didn't think people cared. Thanks again.

It will be interesting to see how well that elbow will work with the Mast intake. I would think you're leaving some power on the table but I've never seen anyone running an elbow on a Mast so......? Any reason you're not going with a 4500 style throttle body on that bad boy?

I sure know about problems and these damn cars i had my trans out 5 times last year dealing with heat issues. But glad your sticking with it. One of my favorite builds on here! Keep it up and thanks for the update!

Many people use the Mast or AllPro intakes with elbows. Look at Mark Carlyle, Ray Litz, and Wayne Gopshes to name a few. I will agree a sheet metal intake from say Marcella,Hogan, Beck, or Wilson would be a better option but I can't pull that right now since most are almost double the cost.

It will be the same buddy that did my last piping fab, cage, and rear end work. If you want to check them out, go to BDRC race cars on Facebook. Good guys, I've helped them both out the past few years on there True10.5 cars.
