Re: 1964 GMC 3/4 ton build :D

Well nice attempt but failed miserably the air cleaner was flowing less than the factory filter grrr a friend of mine works at a tuner that has a air filter flow tester and I asked him to see if my setup would work.... Oh well onwards and upwards now .. Got my hands on a cadillac escalade setup to play with now got the bas installed today and looking at how to design a fiberglass intake duct for it presently it clears the hoold bu almost 3 inches so plenty of clearance. Also have been working on getting the fuel injection and chassis harness fixed and secured to the firewall and other attachement points to keep it neat and out of the way for servicing or incase I have to drop anything out of the truck at any time. Engine is out at this time waiting on a welder I talked to this week via email he is going to come by sat the 14th and weld in some patches to my frame where I cur it at thinking it would be ok to clear some exhaust manifolds DOH!! not ok apparently my blod nature took over and notched it right where it is a flex point in the structure of the frame lol.. Here are some pics of the escalade filter box, firewall wiring, and the positive battery junction I am putting in the truck to power the relay setups
