Yep, I just spotted where the throttle body comes through the dash...looks like you will be getting the hump!

There was a 'cuda built in the 'States which had the twin air intake style bonnet but it was raised about five inches and that looked the nuts...dunno whether or not you've seen it?

Or how about a giant shaker!
The pump don’t work coz the vandals took the handles.

Did consider that, just need to try one for size or get measurements from one

Looks really good Mark

Particularly interested in the cooling side of things

Is the pump fully submersible ?

You talking Intercooler ? If yes, then yes, its fully submersible pump. Basically a bilge pump as used on boats

Don't recall the Cuda you mention, got any links or pics ?

I used to like Dan Dyers modified AAR type hood on his Blown Cuda

Mark. I looked everywhere, I thought it was featured by Mopar Muscle, but couldn't find it, but here's what I was talking about...sorry about my rough PhotoShop work, but my studio guys are busy!

Jerry was off work today, so took the opportunity to go up to Jon's to see how the Cuda progressing . . .

Jons been concentrating on the cold side & intercooler pipe work. Still waiting on Throttle Body, which appears to be lost in transit, hopefully will turn up soon or a replacement in its place
