Jim Pettigrew fabbed up an intake tube for my car. Man just the material for that thing was out of sight. The big radiator I am running did not leave me much room. I had to get a 4 inch tube on a 4 inch radius. Great product but the bend was $125...and I got 2.

Anyway, enough crying. Jim also made a cool heater hose bulk head and I am running my heater hoses and a/c lines on the inside of the inner fenders.

Here is a couple of shots...getting just that much closer.

I like the raw aluminum look, so I may just put a brush finish on the inner pannels and intake tube and leave it at that.

I got the silicone tubing and stainless t-bolt clamps at www.hosetechniques.com

You can get the hose in different colors. I was having a hard time finding just black.

I really like how the panels look under the hood. I especially like the core support forward cover. It's very clean looking.
