Unatural Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Looking good. Are you going to put an intercooler on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exesivefire Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 Thank you, yes I plan on some sort of intercooler in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topher5150 Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 A twin turbo setup, and an IRS...is it going to be a drag racer, or more of a pro-touring??? If you do a google search about foxbody, cobra IRS some guy did a build up on that, and it basically just bolts right in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exesivefire Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 Single turbo, more road race, I'll probably do a drag one later. I know the irs bolts up, luckily it's pretty easy in scale too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exesivefire Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 getting the exhaust worked out. used stainless with a piece of solid aluminum inside to stop it from kinking. Ill hear it up to get that nice color on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exesivefire Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 just have to clean up the hole in the fender and add some detail to that v-band clamp and I think we can call it good. I guess I need to clean up the firewall and box the interior back in too. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsnake98 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 This thing is so cool, very nice building so far. I love the wheel setup too. I was wondering if you could take a pic of the wheel and tire next to a ruler and post it? I'm looking to see the height of the pegasus 19's for a couple of builds I'd like to use a bigger wheel on. Keep it up man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exesivefire Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 Yeah I'll try and do that tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exesivefire Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 looks like they are just barely over an inch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsnake98 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Sweet thank you, I was looking at a couple different pegasus wheel combos but they are about 7/8" and are too short, these wide d'z will work good. Thanks again and keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exesivefire Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 What kit are you thinkin of using them on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsnake98 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 On a 65 chevelle with a little different roof treatment. I have a set of 23's from shucky on this board, they look too big on the front so I was thinking of seeing what the 19's on the front would look like. This is where I'm at so far with it. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=88535&view=&hl=&fromsearch=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exesivefire Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 I think I have a 19/23 combo somewhere, I can show you the difference, but I can honestly say the 19s would probably solve your issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsnake98 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 That would be cool, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exesivefire Posted September 28, 2014 Author Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) So I was working with making the drag spoiler into a lip spoiler, trimmed it up. Mocked it up as a wing and liked it. But something inside me couldn't put a "wing" on it and I trimed it more to keep going. And now I ruined it and kinda wish I made it a wing... Oh well Live and learn Edited September 28, 2014 by exesivefire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
