No is just a willy bigger block.

Your thinking of a boat inter cooler which uses river/sea water to keep inlet temps down. In the good old days drag racers use to hollow them out and fit them so they must have so sort of advantage? further away from engine temps ?

Very nice work but I can't help thinking "the weight, the weight", this car is going to be C body weight by the time you've finished with it!

So I take it you'll have a lift-off hood?
If it was a 'normal' hood hinged from the normal position, the cut-out will need to go beyond the front edge?! :? :lol:

Will. All I can say is =P~ =P~ =P~ =P~ =P~ =P~ =P~ =P~ =P~

The first time we met this was a painted shell on a trailer. At the Nats.
A ' budget ' Charger you said. The price of euro box. !!!!!!
And you pointed out a couple of ' fish eyes' in the paint work.
Addiction, obsession , call it what you like. The result so far is astonishing !
