Here is a nice side shot.

It has about 3/16” gap which is hard to see in the picture.

Final Intake Tube Mock Up (( 02-21-23 ))
 

Once again I played with the intake tube so I can get the bracket made to support the intake tube.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...062e346-me.jpg

I used the blue tape to reference where the tubes need to be once the clamps are tight. What you can't see is how
far I had to push everything into the couplers.

You can see where I plan to install the bracket from the fan shroud to the intake tube.

Apparently I forgot to tighten the exhaust clamps when Dr EFI Andrew was setting up the tune on the car. Good News
they are now tight and at the proper angle so they are above the frame rail.

2nd Chance Screaming Chicken DBW Pedal Bracket (( 02-25-23 ))
 

I ordered this bracket a long long time ago and somehow misplaced it. When I ordered I told Dave at Screaming Chicken
that the best way to find it is to order another one. Well, I was correct as the day I went out to the garage to install the
bracket I found the first one I ordered.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...8636261-me.jpg

Step One - Remove the DBW Assembly

Step Two - Remove the factory pedal.

Step Three - Cut out this Template

Step Four - Place the Template and Drill a hole in the target.

Step Six -- Install Pedal on the new bracket from the guys at Screaming Chicken.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...ae540d0-me.jpg

One of the features I like with this bracket is it allows me to move the pedal over roughly 1/4"
which I think is what I need to miss the carpet on the trans tunnel.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...0278e32-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...985c900-me.jpg

Eventually I did move it over to the other side and it clears the carpet

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...95fc5c3-me.jpg

One thing that I will have to do is replace the nut that I am using as a spacer. If you are using a factory
pedal you won't have this issue.

Great progress. I am glad you posted info about your air filter as I’ve been wanting to ask questions about it for months. So THANK YOU. It looks like it will fit my junk perfectly.

Thanks again,
Jim

Marty,

Good job on the pedal!

Andrew

I know I'm the minority here but every time I see an K&N air filter I think back to this story my buddy told me last year - how he'll never use a K&N air filter again.

He had 2 different vehicles with problems resulting purely from those filters.

"It's the oil on them. It ruined the MAF sensors. 01 Silverado and 18 Diesel Cruze. 65,000 miles and 82,000 respectively and poof! Sensors went bad."

FWIW I guess.

Thank you very much

I have heard the same story's and if I put 60,000 miles on this car and a sensor or two go bad I am going to be happy as it means i am actually driving the car.

For the Love of Carbon I love my little Cut Off Wheel (( 02-28-22 ))
 

Since I am using the Afco LS Radiator setup which is larger then the stock radiator I need to modify this beautiful Anvil Carbon
Fiber Radiator Cover. Out comes my trust Dremel with the tiny cut off wheel.

In the next two pictures you can see how much needs to be removed.

I will need to install Nutserts since this piece uses the out most holes.

I have had the closeout panels since the first build and I contacted Anvil to see if they have one that matches the radiator
cover. They do have one that matches and they are taking very good care of me and sending me one that matches perfectly.

Not to worry. He does not have a MAF sensor.

Andrew

This build is incredible!
