sounds good,May get one this Fall. build the frame and mark off the cut with pen or so,flip over the frame and and glue on a brace(this half will be floppy). glue the insert too the rear half and let set over night. Build hood or mockup (I used revell 359 hinges). Set hood cab in place.tape cab too the frame. put dabs of glue on the end of inserts,before glue drys make the adjustments so hood and cab line up and keep checking by placing a ruler at the end of the steer axle and one of the drivers.
I be-leave the steering box will have too be moved as well.
to lower the cab(IF it need too be). look on the firewall cut the tabs down. keep them even I layered strips of plastic 1MM thick next too the cab mounts. As in 5 layers then 4 and so on too 2.with each cut test fit.
The intake made from ink pen and flat strips for detail.
