    Im probably going to go with some lake headers (baffled no undercar exhaust) with small cut turnouts like satanshoe or brewton

  4. Daaayum bro, that's looking killer, I never noticed the roof, looks good.
    I see you shaved the drip rails totally different look for sure.

    Hey, I have a question for ya, what kinda clearance you got Radiator to fan and does you fan set low? like below center?

    Grits...my rad sits a little below center not much though. I have prob 1 3/4 to 2 inches maybe even a little more of clearance on the fan. My car wont keep shaved drip rails im going to be putting drip rails back on it for sure. I dont really like the shaved look that much.....thanks for the compliments!

    Agree with you on the drip rails....car just needs something their!

    I ended up taking some .375" solid round rod and welding that onto the body. A little bondo blending and now have an drip edge I wanted.
     
  7. Whew, thought you were gonna leave them off, glad you're gonna put them back on, looks more better that way IMO, I'm concerned with the distance between your rad and fan, it is recommended not much more than about half an inch unless you're using a shroud and I don't think you want that ,,,right?
     
  8. You can get a 1.5 spacer from Vatozone, they are universal, I had to change mine when I got rid of that POS fan I was using, had a 2 incher there and had to move back to 1.75 or 1 and 3/4 for you English speaking folks :)

    Thanks guys...the garage is a side entry 2 car which compared to my townhouse 1 car is HUUUUUGGGGEEE!!!!!! Im really excited about getting moved in next month. Like I said it will slow the work down on the car for a bit but overall it will be more than worth it. I dont want to rush my build either need to pay attention to the details....

    I went from living in an apartment or crashing at friends houses for a couple years to owning a 32 x 20 side entry garage. It fills fast man so keep the necessities. I now rent a shop with friends for what I can't store in the garage....and a 10 x 10 shed out back. It really is a sickness.

    Beautiful house man!!!
