  1. Looking good Tory!!! I really enjoy watching your builds, You have tons of talent
  2. Next I ran my oil lines and finished it off by painting the fittings Thank you for looking and please enjoy as usual any comments, suggestions or critiques are welcome
  3. I then trimmed it and sanded it down a little next I plumed my AN fittings into the remote oil filter block as well as the reserve tank that was part of the kit that I donated to the cause next I added the oil filter and a small decal
  4. OK so this weekend I tackled the remote oil filter system I started by utilizing a spare carb from the parts box
  5. So I finished the intake tonight by adding the second set of nitrous solenoids wiring and plumbing them thanks for looking
  6. Ok one step closer to being done on my intake today I got the twin throttle bodies mounted and I also built and mounted the fuel regulator and mounted the throttle linkage
  7. I was only able to get a few hours in today but I was able to get my fuel injector rails ran and plumbed I made the anodized fittings and ran the fuel return lines also I got the first set of nitrous lines plumbed to the solenoids
  8. OK I have been having a hard time recovering from my recent trip to the dentist but I was able to sit at the bench a little this evening and I started pluming the first side of the intake for nitrous I started by drilling out styrene rod to accept the fogger lines which I bent and glued into the intake. Then I drilled the top of the solenoid to run the power and ground wires. Thank you for looking and any and all comments, suggestions or critiques are welcome
  9. I had run across that post too but at that point I was already knee deep in building mine but good looking out!
  10. Once I got to the intake I realized that instead of a Tunnel ram style it was an ugly triangle box looking thing so I took the knife to it and made it look a little better the second pic is after painting it Thanks for looking and as always any comments, suggestions or critiques are welcome
  11. Next I started on the power plant the motor is a donor out of the Revell Fireball Firebird match racer I removed the Liberty transmission and used it on another build so for this I am using a resin TH400 that I got from Morgan Automotive Detail (Very high quality piece)
  12. So I got a little bench time in this morning before having to go get a tooth pulled This first picture is of the second coat of filler on the cowl hood it still needs to be sanded down
  13. OK I got the first of many sanding sessions done and it came out pretty good...
  14. And finally I spread the filler on the hood and had it smooth-ish until I went to set it down and it stuck to my glove and fell sticky side down so now my sanding will take a little longer than I want but its gotta be right I also filled a couple of small holes on the body where the lower trim was Thanks for looking and as usual any comments, suggestions or critiques are welcome
  15. Next I mixed up my body filler... It was a great idea to make friends with the body man at my work
  16. Next I busted out the styrene sheet and made the sides and the top of the scoop I did laminate 2 pieces together on all 3 parts to the scoop to add some strength
  17. Then I used an old blade to score my cuts until I made it all the way thru the hood and had nice clean cuts
  18. Ok I started to work on the cowl hood scoop this morning First I "kinda" measured out my cut lines
  19. I actually like Ol Big head Doc as far as the reference material I have pulled pics off of Twitter and Instagram and have had a few back and forth messages with Doc thru Twitter to get body color codes ETC
