Not a problem, they fit nicely behind the front bumper!

Looks like fun but that will be a plumbing nightmare. More power to you. You are going to need some of this :praying:. Do you plan on keeping the radiator in the front?

Radiator is in the stock position and will be staying there. Plumbing it won’t be a big deal. There’s room for 3” tube between the grille and the radiator yoke. Hot side will come straight forward from the headers and under the radiator. Not running an intercooler.
 
nice package, clean install

thinking outside that box :thumbsup:

why no intercooler ?
expense (& more room for more plumbing) or no adequate space, or all ?

just curious

Really no need. It’s only gonna be 8.50 legal. Gonna fire it up and get it tuned on pump gas. I’ll add a water/meth injection and use the Holley EFI to control it. Racing will be on a C16 tune.

:thankyou:
 
You are still susceptible to damage easily up there good luck
The bumper is going back on. The only thing I couldn’t fit back in was the stock turn signal light housings. I’m making some thinner LED versions to go back in the openings.

Nice job . hay do you back flush with argon when you weld up the 3" pipe? and what are you doing for headers?

I didn’t back purge the 3” stainless pipes where I welded them to the bumper brackets as they’re just down pipes. Everything from the header flange to the turbo is back purged. I’m building the headers as well.
