Thats interesting. A blower. I like the placement of the Trans cooler.
Questions
How hard will it be to service the air cleaner?
Will the air cleaner be shielded from the exhaust heat?
You have made fast progress. Looks great.

That's the engine oil cooler, It's a really big filter element there that can drop out from below and there will be a curve piece of aluminum funneling air into there. I may put heat reflective material on that panel next to the headers. Also I am going with a lexan rear hatch with holes along the bottom to help heat get out,

Awesome Gary.

That motor is going to be a torque monster.

I can't wait to see all the details you come up with.

I know there is at least one other one. IIRC ironman on the other forum put a blower on. Although it is facing with the pulley to the rear and is driven off the back of the crank.

Looking good, can't wait to see how she does on the dyno. Keep it easy on that "new" engine.

wait till you see the coolest part of this build! Definitely hasn't been done before, and doubt it will ever be duplicated.

Funny you should ask, I just finally got the main body back from the painter in primer. Had the headliner done and sealed the inside of the body today. Gonna take the whole day tomorrow to dry and hope to install it on Sunday. Hoping to have it to the point in 2 weeks that it goes back to the bodyshop mounted for final paint.
