Mudjunkie, with the blower there, do you have enough clearance to close the hood? Or is it not as big as im picturing? Looks good /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
 
NICE!

Looks like with a small EFI plate it could clear the hood...
You puttin dual quads on top of that? /forums/images/graemlins/ears.gif
I remember reading you say you o-ringed the heads this time so you'll be able to run more boost?

looks to me like there's injectors in that intake under the supercharger /forums/images/graemlins/thinking.gif /forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif
 
Those are the studs from the manifold to the blower. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[/ QUOTE ]with the carbs and air cleaner on it will be little above the hood. I have a buddy that fabs Aluminum, he is making a box that will go over the air cleaners with a duct that will go to the fire wall where the blower for the heater used to be. It will draw air from the inside of the cab, keeps the water and mud out of the motor..... /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
