Very nice looking build. I have thought about that layout several times. Have you run into any fitament issues? I would gues the radiator has been stood up at a minimum. Anyhow, it is very nice looking and shoul smake some killer power.

This car is 100% custom. It's not intended to bolt into any f-body.
