I really like this car. Thanks for the nice updates. Motor setup looks sick!

Bob from Automotive Design Engineering put his digitizing equipment to work. The waterneck protrudes up above the intake flanges on the heads, and the design of the dual throttle body intake is very low. Bob will input these points into the 3D model to check for clearance issues, etc.
