Default Starting the maggie install on my SS

Well got back form being out of town and started to install the maggie all was going fine until it started to get dark outside and it was dinner time. Here is a before and after pic so far just the maggie installed its a trail fit for now.

I decided not to lower the k member so I trimmed more of the cowl area so far everything fits great got to try the wipers tommorrow but if they dont work no big deal as I cant remember the last time I used them.

Heres a few more pics I got the heat exchanger mounted in front of the rad and still had room for the tranny cooler with about 1 inch space on both sides also routed all the lines but its dark so no pics of them.

I"ll have to run the 42's for now hopefully they be enough for my SI motor .

Yea, one of those was done locally here too. Just don't overspin it, they make a lot of heat up top and it will hurt your peak.
