Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E

ok, im getting back on hulk, blue-ray is bought wrapped up....so finished up some loose ends on the front sheetmetal...the sheetmetal was just cleckod in place, so i brought the holes up to size, and wleded nuts on where needed....also made a cosmetic peice that connects the inner fenders and hides the front most crossmember, and it also makes the engine 'pop' more, due to it hugging the front of the engine and accesories...i made this piece removable from the top, due to maintance (IE.. radiator hose replacement) here is the process of all that, and some pics of everything installed...

My metal work doesn't look that nice after I cover it with bondo and paint.

Very Slick Craftsmanship, did we ever figure out what the dimensions are on the radiator? I was looking at the Howe site and wasn't sure....

Thanks

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E

that engine bay idea looks killer man!

not that you need to, but i think if you made 1 more piece to make it flow from the firewall that would make it look that much better! either way, thats a great idea you got there...

I could not find that filler panel on the Scott's web page? Was that a one off for your truck? Any way it looks great on your truck, keep it up!

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E

then i started my attention on the air intake system..since everything looks symetrical under the hood, it made sence to make the tube 'y' off the throttle body, rather then go to one side or the other..also we didnt want the airfilters to be seen or hard to get to (more on this later)...so with all this in mind, i made the 'y', cut holes in the inner fenders, welded a 4" pipe to them to make a bulkhead, then put a 90* boot on there, and made the dual ram air inlets...the placement of the in lets were determinded by a couple of factors, i wanted them to be up high enough that road debris wouldnt get in there, the outlet of the bulkhead going thru the inner fenders, and the structual design of the radiator support... with all that to work off of, the placement was determind to be up high, and to the inboard of the headlights..
here are a few build process pics, the inlets measure 6" across, and 4" wide...
