Blakt Out Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 OK fellas. It’s been a while since an update. The car’s going to be running next week, and will be off to the restoration shop, Miller Brothers Hot Rod Barn for final assembly. I WILL be enjoying this car next month! So, here’s the status. The men at National Speed have done some amazing things here. Finalizing the totally 100% custom exhaust… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blakt Out Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 There’s a ton of money in Black Horse AN fittings and such on this table… all of it totally & perfectly planned out. Nothing extra. Nothing short. They made this catch can as part of a complete system that will keep evaporated oil from getting back into my intake. I’ll explain it more once I understand, which is not at this moment. ☺ 750cc top feed injectors The Greddy fuel rail was blue. You can see inside the holes. However, that would really clash with the rest of the engine bay, so it was media blasted. It will be polished more before final install.

Blakt Out Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 The stock plastic coil cover would really bring down the looks of the engine bay too, so they made one of aluminum. I love it. It really works well with everything going on. With a loud color such as the lime, I wanted to keep a polished/brushed and black theme with the engine stuff. Here are some detail shots. Please remember that everything’s not done yet. Not everything is as tight as it will be, or as polished as it will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blakt Out Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 The electrical goodies are all wrapped in snake skin and it’s all pretty darn clean so far. And finally, the overall glory shots. Final welding hasn’t been done. They’re all tacked in there for fitment. The guy who took this picture sent it to me with one word attached: “WIN”. I about cried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators RTz Posted December 24, 2009 Administrators Share Posted December 24, 2009 Silver colored ceramics aren't normally associated with the temperatures the hot side sees. Most of the ratings are in the 1400 deg. range (if I recall correctly) due to the aluminum melting. Is there something different about the proccess you are using? Stunning build!

Blakt Out Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 Wow. That's a really cool thing to say. I hereby give Jesus this car. Actually, I did when I bought it. I love Jesus. Very cool post. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garvice Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Where did you or where are you going to put your boost control valve. I have the same one and am wondering where to put it, been thinking about the valance panel behind the firewall, but still haven't made up my mind yet. By the way, I love the black anodised fittings. Have been wanting to go silver and black in my engine bay. Although I want to do black braided hoses as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra_Tim Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Looks great man! Shouldn't the oil return be pointed directly down though? Or is that a cooling line I see? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
