At least the old flex joint was the better type, with the stainless accordion piece inside so the stainless braid can't collapse and clog the pipe. But the double slip is considered the best way to go and I was building it from scratch so I opted for that.

Definitely was the better one. Sounds like overall your much happier with gaining the extra space too.

Drilled and tapped the Texas Speed intake for an air temp sensor. Like it in the intake instead of the air inlet tube as that's what the engine is actually seeing.

Just a few random pics. Just starting on the EFI wiring, making mods to the harness to fit better and cleaner. Put the Ron Davis Radiator and fan combo in to make sure the exhaust crossover clears. Next up will be figuring out the intercooler mounting and building the radiator hoses.
