Hood Progress
Finally got the scoop today! Now we can finish cutting the hole in the hood. Got the frame notched out enough to fit the headers!!! It's getting there!!!!! Thanks for all the great comments - it's nice to be able to share all the progress with those that understand how much work this can turn into!

Re: Hood Progress
Mega cool, nice fix on the frame, looks close on the valve cover, but I'm sure you already know that, I see your marks. You are talented!!

Re: Hood Progress
Man, that looks sweet! Amazing how much can be stuffed under a truck's hood. On a car, most of that blower would be sticking out. Very cool!

Re: Hood Progress
Wow! That is awesome. Have you dyno'd the engine?? What kind of hp you shooting for? I'm assuming you're going 1 ton on your axles to handle that monster.
