Thanks guys...  Travis - no go on Detroit this year, getting ready for a local show next weekend.

I posted pictures of the seat brackets, but not the seats...

The rack servo is mounted

Also machined/fabricated a mounting bracket for the KRC power steering pump.

Parts sure look better without tape






P/S bracket matches the hot rod air a/c pump bracket

It's a freakin' money pit!!!

Intake plumbing from the invisible intercooler's to the throttle bodies...

That's gonna be the sickest Chally ever, money pit or not.

My favorite e-body build ever. Can't wait to see it complete with time slips.....

Your craftmanship is top notch! It inspires me. Talent. Wish I had the time and talent.

First set of Bruning Auto Design 5.7 & 6.1L new gen HEMI billet valve covers installed...

It sure looks sweet in steel. It's gotta help pick up new clients.

It's a freakin' money pit!!!

 Looks great, I wish I would have had that kind of room in my engine bay.  Pete

Room?  Not much there...  The 6.1 hemi in a customer's barracuda looks puny in comparison.  The engine is set back, but we lost a lot of vertical space with the chassis built at a very low ride height.  No room for turbo's above the wheels like you typically see on 1st gen camaro TT builds, etc.  The upper control arms are next to the top of the heads.

To put it in perspective, look how close the tire is to the top of the fender (which hasn't been addressed yet).  Stock hinges are only temporary since they will hit the tire during normal suspension travel.

More of a sickness than an addiction, lol...

 In the picture a few posts above where you're referring to the valve covers it looks fairly spacious, but now looking at those it's fairly tight. If my downpipes weren't blued you'd see how tight I really am. I still have to figure out an intercooler and plumb it. I wish I had the welding skills you guys have, your welding and fab work is top notch. Oh and it does look like a money pit, but that isn't meant as an insult, it just looks time consuming and time is money.  Pete

nice work - definitely tight for you too... Must have something to do with the adding a couple turbos and a bunch of plumbing.   

We're in the process of mounting the radiator which will require a custom hood latch, etc.  Intercoolers are going to be a tight fit too.  The fun never ends.

 Are you doing air to air, and obviously the front only has room for rad so are they going in the
fenders. Will they be large enough or will you do a little meth inj. This is what I'm considering because of space constraints. Don't know that I want to do air to water.  I'd really like to know what you're considering, your knowledge base far exceeds mine and it might help with my decision.  Pete

Looking at air to air - but modifying the fenders and front valance a bit with two side mount.  Should be able to support enough HP with the core sizes, but sufficient ducting to the intercoolers will be key.  Tossed around the idea of going air to water a few times, but there are a lot of challenges to going that route also (no pun intended).

Looks like you could possible fit an air to air in front of the rad if you modified the hood support?  Plumbing will be fun regardless.
