Very Very nice. Would love to see a snorkel come off that snail.
Thinking about it, I might run the air cleaner to the back of the engine compartment, I am not sure. I am running out of space in that area.
Does your hood have the cut out for it?
No cut outs "stock". There is a pretty good area in the back of the hood you can get away with going through some pretty deep water because of the pocket of air formed there, but there is not a great place to put the air cleaner or air cleaner inlet cleanly through the body
Was also curious why you went with inter-cooler and not injection, I guess you are planning on driving this at pretty good speed? Seems alot of people that crawl or trail ride that motor prefer the meth/water injection.
I have a rock crawler , this is more for light off road, off road recovery and trailer towing. I am going to set it up to tow my CJ, it should have plenty of capacity and I am going to drive it to work. I do not have much of a plan for low speed high horsepower that water/meth would help with. If it were going in my crawler, I would consider it!
Do you have the radiator installled?
Not yet. I wanted to get the intercooler settled before I got a radiator. Building this thing is like a jig saw puzzle in a way.
Is that why there appears to be so much room?
There is a lot of room in some places, not so much in others. The motor sits a little far further that I would have really liked, but it fit well on the existing cross member and it is still mostly behind the centerline of the front axle. Plenty of room behind it to add insulation/soundproofing!
So many questions I really should see this truck in person.
