yes it does, though u will need one more hole for the saftey latch to work.

i had previously removed my saftey latch cause it would hit my intercooler the way i mounted it

its also makes a handy tool tray when ur working on the engine in the car lol

Does it have to be 3rd gen specific? I have done tons of custom fabs on a lot of cars but none thirdgen related (yet) that hasn't been posted about here before.

OK I'll just show off the biggest project of them, it's all custom fab. The frame itself was once stock, for the rest only the doors are stock, the rest is all modified or home built. It has:

Custom 1 off cast intake manifold (looks like a common weber crossram but it's not) with 4 Dellorto DHLA 45H tri jet pressure carbs (off US spec lotus esprit turbo, euro specs came w/ 40mm carbs) w/ custom fuel lines
2 Rotormaster T04B S4 .60 turbochargers, spring adjustable & remote adjustable waste gates custom fabbed stainless 4" downpipes, custom cast 1 off log style manifolds
Home built front suspension with adjustable upper control arms, adjustable ball joint height, full coil overs mounted as close to the balljoint as possible.
Front steering end take off tack & pinion using Appleton rack
Custom built double a arm rear suspension, fully adjustable w/ coil overs (all Carrera advanced shocks, custom built & dyno tuned)
Custom brake setup using Wilwood Integra 6s on the front and IR-GTs on the back
C4 Corvette Dana44 differential with custom rear end cooler pump, custom built pinion mount (incorporated into pump bracket).
Custom 12 pnt roll cage, reinforced floor, triangulated everywhere. Fluidyne monster radiator, 32 gallon ATL fuel cell, 5 Gallon Dry sump tankl 5 stage dry sump oiling system and much much more. All custom fiberglass bodywork with flip front/clamshell style hood.

Only downside is, I haven't worked on it in over 2 years.

there is no sending unit, the one i made was almost 1gallon, so if u used it for a nitrous fuel source u would just check the level after every run
for inlet and outlets i had an fittings welded to the top with barbed fittings on the bottom to connect it to the pump.

the hanger assembly was just a piece of tubing i cut in half lenghtwise to hold the pump to with some clamps.the whole hanger assembly bolted down to the cell with a few 5/16's bolts and had a gasket to stop it from leaking

on mine when i mounted it in the car i just figured out were i wanted it and welded some aluminum angle and attached it with bolts to the car

if u goto build one of these i would try to find somehting better then the thing i used to get power to the pump, what i used was basically a large speaker connector ,like what u would use on a speaker box, except this one was made to mount into a metal panel, u can find that kinda stuff on mc master carrs website

Yes that third picture could have been taken before the modifications were done to it. But as for being photoshopped, If you take a look at both the front and closeup pictures you will notice that cut-out pattern is the same. Something I believe is very hard to do as a perspective drawing in photoshop.

Ya know, that would make some sense... If this guy can afford that engine build, plus those tires, and have a garage like that... yeah its likely he can afford another hood as well. This car looks like its show worthy and definitely "GO" worthy.

Re: lets see some pics of your custom mods and/or fabrication

You know I dont think its photoshopped at all. Look at the supercharger to the left of the pulley clearly there is a reflection of the hood in the supercharger. Anyways its sick down right sick. I agree completely with omnipotentgoku defintely "GO" worthy I saw that beast in my rear view. I'm pulling over then again I don't think i would ever get the chance to see it in my rear view. . I think the hood is great, complements how much power is there.
