cowl panel is bada** did he just cut out the vents and tig around the perimeter?

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"

60-66 Slosh Tubz are ready, this is the first set out of the mold and test fit is perfect !

They are built around Porterbuilts complete front suspension with 1 inch narrowed arms. Laying frame they can clear up to a 30 inch tire and wheel combo. Running a 265-35-22 you can turn lock to lock at ride height (frame 5 inches off of the ground) rolling lower then that and turning with a 265-35-22 you are going to run into your fender and firewall. They clear the Porterbuilt shock mounts and will clear an 8 inch booster on the firewall.

They bolt in with the 3 bolts under each side of the core support in front and 3 bolts in top of the fender. There is another mounting point designed to bolt to the front cab floor support brace that runs partially up the firewall.

Can you highlight the "3x top of the fender" mounting points in a pic for reference?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

I can take a picture tonight, the front of the tub by the core support on the hood edge has 2 mounting points and the rear right by the firewall they are the factory mounting holes. The flash on the camera kind of makes them disappear
