top notch (as usual)

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Thanks guys and yes its just way cleaner, simple, and less busy. Those who followed this build remember how much it bothered me having to have the column come out of the firewall due to the 55-56 Chevy car dash swap.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

BAM,

True

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build

BAM, that looks great. I like the boost terminals discretely hiding out, I am using those same ones under my hood as well.
what kind of air filter is that? never seen one with that checkerboard look before. cool.
do you plan to cover the intake with something from your box of tricks? can't wait to see how that looks if you plan that. you always come up with something new and cool.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Your killing it

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Very, very clean!!

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Bam,

Loving everything I see. What are your plans for the valve covers/coil covers and possibly(?) an engine cover?

Do you think she'll be ready to drive to the Brothers Show next summer?

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Nice work as always...Jim

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Very nice looking.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

The filter is a cheap one I found on ebay. I had to find a shorter one than the red one that I was using because it hit the inner fender. That design is called carbon fiber. I believe it was only 12 bucks. Yes I plan to eventually run a engine cover but I will think about that later I have way bigger eggs to fry.lol I have to get this thing done so I can start on my 55 210 car.


Thanks

Thanks
Thanks. Like I said earlier in this post, yes I plan to do something, I'm just not sure as to what at this time. It will be something simple. Brothers Show man I hope so but I'm not going to say it.lol
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

This is a great build. I have a question what did you use for your stake pocket fuel filler. I would like to put something in the rear deck in a suburban. It doesn't look like what you use is really deep. thanks and keep up the good work

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Hiding the loom came out real nice.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Really lookin like the home stretch now. Love it all, can't wait to see it completed.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
 

Thanks man.

I've been trying to think of a way to build a air box to have the coolest air possible and found a air box that is exactly what I was thinking of building. It took a simple mod but I i did not have to make a box, which saved me a lot of time.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
