70 Hemi Superbird Restoration..................errr.....scratch that........

One nifty piece that just kind of worked out is the latch tray. It’s real function is to keep air from pushing up on the hood and keep it moving through the radiator. It also hides the turbos and intercoolers and makes for a finished look.

One part about backyard engineering is that sometimes it doesn’t quite work like ya want it. My oil tank and valve cover want to occupy the same space at the same time.

Great Job! Love the way this looks...

Tonight’s episode was divider panel fab. Another simple aluminum panel. Once the other side’s panel is made, I can work on bolting in the intercoolers.

Nice progress I haven't checked in for a while!

Thanks Goon! I’m back on it now that winter is here. Working on cold side plumbing now.

That room in the nose comes in handy huh.

I was thinking the same thing, it's awful tight up there otherwise.

Are you leaving the hole in the front fender or are you making something that will somewhat hide the intake?

It sure does. I even have room for a 10” air filter on each turbo for street duty. Hoping to get all the piping run between turbos and intercoolers this weekend and then start the intake/throttle body pipes. Next up is the water tanks. That will be real fun!

Which hole in the fender? The rust holes? Lol I’m not sure what you mean.

I think he means the one below the marker light, exhaust?

Yeah, that’s a 4” exhaust downpipe. I dumped it out there to give me more room for the tire and the water tank which will be under there.
