Nice TIG's but that IC look very odd. Whats with the smaller core relative to the endtanks?

Rich

 

looks good to me ? Iam sure that it will work just fine.

 

Well, i'm assuming given turbo size, the intercooler placemennt and size, and what appears to be a fuel cell where the battery used to be. that this is going to be a track car. They can run smaller intercoolers because they are only running for a matter of seconds, such a short time that heat soak really isnt an issue

 

Yes this will be a track only car and I forgot to mention that I havent welded on the
caps for the intercooler yet. The intercooler is a water to air and the tank which you are talking about is for the water and ice to go into.

 

lookin good aka.
im still wondering where the radiator's going?

 

good point, lol
i'd guess between the intercooler and manifold

 

OOO.. Me Next!!

 

Looking good.

 

Yeah !!! I havent really come up with a place to fit the radiator yet. Ahhh who needs a radiator anyway !!!

 

Looks very nice...

 

Well all I can really tell you is that the motor is built to the hilt and it is big 2.1 plus. Iam really just doing the fab work and the rest is up to my friend. I would be disapointed if the car makes any less than 500 hp. The car is a 4 door so Iam not to sure what kind of times it will turn, Its a pig.

 

I got a chance to work on this thing a little more this weekend here are some pics of the progress. Thank god this thing is almost out of my garage !!!!
enjoy

 

nice work

i was kidding about the radiator, on a race car, the minor details can be mounted elsewhere.
are you sumping the oil from the turbo?

And yes you will be able to see where the radiator is going.
