Wish you were here too, Paul. The odd angles are toed in and out because of the valve/port stagger. Just like the grand national.

HEY stop hijacking my gorgeous husband's name!!! Trust me I know who the cuter one is ;) Remember Bill, I know where you live :twisted:

Say hi to Kimmy for me! :D
We don't see her around these parts much anymore. |
:shock:
I refreshed this thread and it flashed up that pic of Bill's eyeball. Thanks John. I'm gonna have nightmares for a week :!: :lol: |

Pdad aka Billy Wren...lol, nice incognitio work there.
Tell Kim that we couldnt find a decent Bonneville around here, not ONE ;) Give her a high five for me, she's probably to old for a hug anyway... :lol: |
Will do, Jimzilla. She'll be back this coming weekend for another flush of the 'ol ricer trans. Seems to have helped, so we'll go after another 1/3 of the fluid.
Lots of pics will be up later tonight. MAJOR progress pics. Finalizing the IC stuff, things stacked up REALLY nice. Again, Pdad has saved my sore :booty: and back today. Good to have such a damn good wrench around here. Just bouncing stuff off him and fabricating with two opinions is immensely invaluable. Paul, you'd have been very busy here had you made it. Off to pickup a take 'n bake pizza, then back to soldering the FINAL fitting angles on the IC core. ;) Pics will be up in a couple hours. |

Alotta pics. New axle went in, set up some plugs for the LIM, two to allow holes to solder the final connections, one for the new post-IC air temp probe. Lots of other progress, ask questions if you have any. The LIM and SC pics coming later are only a test-fit for IC inlet and outlet angles. Also shown is what the magnetic nosedrive fill and drain plugs picked up in 1000 miles or so on the Zilla:

These hoist brackets put up with install last winter, hoisting out the old, hoisting in the new, and everything in between: Attachment 35653 Valve covers shown are the aluminum covers with the wrinkle paint. Attachment 35654 Attachment 35655 Attachment 35656 Keep in mind, this intercooler is just a prototype unless it performs flawlessly, and I don't feel like mucking with it any more. It may very likely be re-done inside the LIM before WCBF '08. |
SHOW me more of my sexy husband!!!!!!! I want to see all the work he did!!! I did like his cute butt!

I know you guys are probably very tired or drunk as hell but some of the pics need some info.
Like what are those holes above the intercooler feed and return lines and how are your going to seal :?: What is that brass plug for :?: |
