That's some MY T FINE redneck engineering there

Yeah, I've seen some home crafted scoops and cowls that looked pretty good. Some, not so much.

It probably wouldn't hurt. It's never been a problem before I hardwired my fuzzbuster in. I can switch it off, but there is a little module in the line with a mute button remotely mounted and it stays powered up and illuminated with an led light. Not sure if that's it, but I'm guessing so.

Why do you need a fuzzbuster Allen?

Why, to bust fuzz of course, Dave!

Ahhhh, kind of an anti-static thingy

That is correct. I need no static while driving.

Good news and bad news. Started the car, warmed up and idled fine. That's the good news. As I was waiting for the typical greasy hands oil smoke to burn off and checking things over.. I noticed it. The puddle rolling out from under the car. It was FUEL! Yikes! I shut it down and started slinging oil dry to slow the travel of the vapors before it could find ignition and burn my car and shop down.. *Sigh* it was dripping off the bellhousing when I looked under the car, so it's either leaking at the crossover hose between the rails, or i screwed up an injector o-ring bumping stuff around installing the upper. So, it has to come back off. Geez I hate this intake.

Boosted92LX · Jul 31, 2016

Found it. Stupid left an -AN line loose on the return off the rail. Derp! Now to put it back together.. This has got to be @madmike1157 's fault somehow. I associate with him, and now I'm having to do it twice...

time for a elbow intake.

All things considered I'm surprised that wasn't part of the build.

RaggedGT · Jul 31, 2016

I really like that edelbrock intake..lol

That's a great intake, no doubt, but at 500hp and forced induction an elbow would be my choice. 500hp stroker sure keep the plenum.

Believe me, it's in the works. My mad money has been dialed back a car payment, though. I'm not complaining. Totally worth it.

P.S.: plenum back on and all buttoned up. Stinkin battery charging back up. Again. Once this thing is running hopefully it decides to hold a charge.

It may be for sale soon. I'll keep you posted.

My optima has been a trooper. It has gone sometimes a year without being turned over and that battery still fires the engine in the first try.

Obsolete anti-cop gear aside.
