Team meeting

Do you think it's worth the effort to bend up metal to tie the edge of the fan and the factory shroud together?

Yes.  The air will take the path of least resistance

Coolant system doneish

When air filters go on it's gettin serious 

I ordered a new fuel cell and such i'm just not happy with the factory fuel tank setup with the body lift, but it's cool because I can use it in the Hellcat HMMWV. 

So once I drop that in I need to wire the pedal and shifter along with the trans controller. Once that's happy I can get the driveshaft made and make sure I have brakes then we can see if it will move on its own.

In reply to AngryCorvair (Forum Supporter) :

Hey, as long as the engine is no taller than an LS1, it'll fit smiley

For the monster I built, I did need to raise the engine up, since I had to move it to the right for oil filter/driveshaft U joint clearance reasons, and then up so the A/C compressor would clear the frame.  (Still had to notch the frame slightly and I think AM General made the frame out of wrenches for as "easily" as it could be cut or bent.  I went through four or five cutoff disks to make a 8" long slice and I needed to heat it significantly to get it to get mooshed down)

A Mopar won't have that issue.  In my case an LS6 intake manifold was a hands thickness from the windshield so there was no way a blower would have fit.
