Re: 1964 GMC 3/4 ton build :D

Ok got the preliminaries and measurements done for the prospected converted heater to cold air intake box setup. Will upload some measurements of the area in question. Looking like I can get away witha filter that is 6-8 inches long, between 5-6 inches diameter with a 4 inch inlet still kinda looking at diff k&n filters right now. Located some stainless flex exhaust pipe at oreillys for the throttle body ducting and maf setup. The bottom of the box will be made from some more of the 1/4 inch thick abs plastic I have been using and will use a soldering iron to melt/seal the edges and seams that way will bond if together and prevent leaks as well. the bolts and studs coming out of the top of the firewall will support the bottom of the box to the firewall and the top will bolt in the factory location. Looking once it is assembled creating a water shield bolted to the top of the heater box but still allow air to get to the filter setup.
