Here she is, just the intake and valve covers mocked up. She is one huge biotch! The TFS Box R Intake is a monster on top of this thing. My buddy's an amazing mechanic. He's done a helluva job getting this heap together.

Just waiting on back ordered headers and she is ready to get dumped in the car. Damn I hope my cowl hood is big enough.

How big is your cowl?

My Box R sticks out of the hood more than 3.5" on my 408.

I have a 6" cowl on the car right now. I'm hoping she's gonna fit underneath. Damn that intake is big.

It's going in here.


My 88 Notch. I know... I know... you hate the body kit. That's the way I bought the car and didn't want to waste any money on exterior mods, especially putting it back to stock. It's going to be a drag car mostly and a fun street car sometimes. It looks better than in the picture now that it's totally done, except still needs rims. You can see the front end of the car in one of the intake pics. Just haven't had the car together to get any shots of it yet.

I think it's actually only a 4" cowl. Yikes, could be tight with the intake. It's a stock hood with the cowl fabbed in it from a body shop. Did a really good job actually but the hood is heaveier than hell.

Your car looks awesome. Have you made any track passes with your setup? Probably can't without a rollbar eh? Car looks fantastic.
