today i installed the front sheet metal , because im runing a hydro boost brake system the turbos are gona have to sit further up front , its a little tight as when i purchased the inner fenders from mike i was not planning on runing twin turbos , should i ditch them to have it all open or trim them some , i need all the input from you guys that i can , help help, ideas

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 
I personally like using some sort of inner fender. It helps keep the road grime and trash out of the engine bay. Even if you rarely drive it, they will help keep the dust down to a minimum. So my vote would be to trim them and modify as necessary. Fiberglass isn't so difficult that I'd recommend tossing them. I'm sure you know this, but before you start trimming be sure to wear protection for your skin and lungs!

But note that I've never worked with turbos, so I don't know how the heat they produce will effect the fiberglass, or if it will even be an issue. Good luck, and have fun!

This is going to be a completely super bad ass truck once you are done brother. I am even happier to see that you are letting everyone see that you have been back
At it and are motivated....
