Here are the crazy custom merge pipe and down pipe.

Will be removing all the piping, cleaning it up inside and out then painting it with VHT Flame Proof. Good for Temperature: 1300°F-2000°F.

Still have to buy a carb hat and the cold side piping.

Very cool.
Not to get off topic but, what type of camera are you using? Those pics look great. Nice detail.
Keep us posted.:cheers:

Canon XTI.

Thanks. :thumbsup:

We got a few more things done. I'm pretty freakin lucky to have a buddy that's so damn good at fabricating with minimal tools.

Throttle kickdown bracket.

New aluminum radiator and shroud.
Radiator is 19 x 22. 16" Electric fan moves 2200cfm.
The shroud was for a 19 x 26 radiator that had to be reworked to fit this one.

B&M has been installed and the manual steering column and steering sector are in. Also put in a temporary bucket seat until I get the dough for the ones I want.

Had to cut a speed hol for the carb hat to clear.
6 pack hood scoop will be getting installed.

Still have to finish the cold side and a lot of other things but the list is getting smaller fast.

Looking good Freak. :thumbsup:

FYI, that VHT seems to be hit or miss on how it holds up. I've had some hold up very well and other spots not last at all.

mine did not last. even with following the instruction to the t!

I guess time will tell, thanks for the info.
Couple guys on turbomustangs have had good luck with it.
Hopefully it will last the year or so that i need it.

Sweet build man...dig it!
