no way, too tight with the grill and bracketry. Unless you do a serious radiator tilt back and down a bit but that intake angles down a lot.

You can fab up a y split with aluminum pipe and go left and right of the fans, or maybe oval tube and go straight down between the fans then open up into an air cleaner box.

Nice work Chris. Good to hear you guys are doing well.

Thanks guys. The oval tube is kinda what we were thinking, maybe out of silver carbon-fiber so it kinda matches. That Nelson intake is about a mile long- fitment issues in a '66 Chevelle??

Tone- that is getting some Rushforth wheels, interior and cleaning up the engine and underhood treatment. It's really a clean car for around here, no rust ever- Chris

Man, I missed a lot of this thread's development. I saw the first few posts but c'mon man....that AME frame is too damn sweet!!!! Brought a tear to my eye when you stuffed the Rushforth's in the wells!!!

BTW thanks for mentioning those ABC tubs!!! I plan on eventually going with a frame like this when funds allow and it is good to know there is a "stock-style" tub on the market to give builders a running start!

Awesome build as always man!!!

Monday was a big day around here. After fighting trying to get the right gloss on the firewall after modifying it again we finally put the body on the frame for the last time.



Let the SEMA count-down begin. The car will be in the Dynomax booth in Hot Rod Alley against the south wall.

Good to hear Chris!

Just a thought, seen where Holohan's Hot Rod Shop had done some modification to an intake like this on a camaro he was working on, nice build
