Thanks,

Chad, that's frickin' awesome! How much???

 

Nice work Chad......u da man....im still waiting for the stickers you promised me that will add 5 horses.

 

looks nice, who makes those??

 

looks great, chad. how strong is it?

 

thanks guys,

it is very rigid. i have added braces and gussets to every imaginable joint, and there is no flex. it took me about 12 hours to mock up and build, so i don't think i will be making another one...at least in this style.

Bomex180: if you find out who makes this awesome brace, please let me know. it sure is nice.

looks great. ?, did you loose the ability to use the engine cover?

 

That looks great. Looks to me that it will work with aftermarket plenums as well, correct?

 

Chad, how much will you sell me your prototype? PM me over at Driver as I don't visit here often. ...or call me...310.818.1875

Hey Chad.... It looks very clean.... and it looks like it will clear my engine/intake manifold even with the 1/2" Motordyne Plenum Spacer.....

I'm interested for sure, let me know how much....

Chad,

As a Bulldog Exhibitor & Breeder I must tell you my favorite photo is that of Norm.

 

well thank you!!

he is a wonderful dog, and i love his markings.

thank you all for the compliments, and Randy, I will hit you up soon.

Chad

 

Where did you find that red crinkle paint on your plenum?????

 

i used VHT high temp wrinkle finish that i bought at a local shop in SD. i cleaned the manifold thoroughly, and sprayed it on. after this, i baked the manifold in the oven for about an hour at 175 degrees. it is very strong paint. i have been pretty impressed. i have always liked the look of the type-R valve cover and 360 modena plenum covers, so i tried to copy them.

the strut tower brace ends are black wrinkle finish. i love the stuff.

Chad

 

Right on Chad! That's thinking out of the box!

 

When?

 

notice any difference in handling from that?
