I just saw it and was going to post it, but of course, Alvin already has the scoop! Speaking of scoops...That second one...Not my cup of tea!

The engine seems to fit fairly well, a lot better than one would expect. I would love to see the front suspension, what it takes to support that weight...TR

AHHHHHHHH. Its an automatic! Thats no fun. I wonder how much heavier the front end is. I bet it goes like heck.

WOW!!!

I didn't think the 302 would fit so niceley.

That double hood scoop does bode well. I would have put louvres the left and right rear corners of the hood to vent out the heat. he could of modified the original hood scoop by re directing the air flow or raising the entire hood scoop an inch somewhere or anywhere.

I think the idea of the automatic was for somebodies non-stick driving benefit. No point in gettting that much power and dumbing down to a 3 speed auto. That a lot power riding a 5 or 6 inch rim.

He must be using a high flowing electric radiator fan.

It doesn't look like the entrie heating system is intact (that would allow for some more coling too).

Thanks for the heads up Alvin. Visuals are worth a lot of hours in trial and errror.

You guy think a dual side pipe exhaust would look nice?

Will, look there is room for a stereo now!

I rigged up a way to do the stereo, its a little crude right now but its in the works. I don't know if the defroster will work (if it had the hose to connect it to the ducts), but the stereo does. I had that installed for Shasta (thank god, it was a long trip with the stereo, I can't imagine what it would have been like without it.)

Thanks Alvin, he has the exact pipes I was thinking of.

They seem kind low. I guess he had mount them that wat to avoid any cutting work to fenders.

I curious how he has a left and a right pipe with only 4 cylinders. I thought that shouldn't be done. Can someone explain?

Pretty cool seeing how well that motor fits. Check out this one that I found on the web. The headers are insane!! I would have kept the Cobra valve covers, but that is just a personal preference....

You can also see the firewall mods and the lack of a heater (although one could be added, but is likely not needed...

Enjoy!

I was wondering how the side pipes were rigged up. How come Raul doesn't drive it much (that and the bad blue 2L)? To have a pair of bad ass roadsters like that and not drive them is a crime.
