Now that is interesting!
I mean, I now see why I can live under the hood of my 1985 engine bay (no fan shroud). Is the battery in the proper location or was it relocated?
Nice work, wasted effort, no return on investment.
Wonder if he'd part out the intake for my Blazer! He can keep the air cleaner, tho

hehe...........500 miles on motor but already needs a tuneup ?? ........looks funny with the aircleaner being so far back on the hood . I guess that's what happens when you do that to a big block 2.8 hehe ..No don't get me wrong Im not making fun or putting down the 2.8 , I have one myself in my maro .It's fast for a 2.8 but I know it could be much faster .Wonder what that car runs with carb ? The green paint on the side looked kinda ***** huh ? even though it adds 10 hp hehe .........Wayne

The battery's in the right spot for 82-84. And yeah, a junkyard electric fan would've cleaned that engine compartment up nicely... I wonder what his highway rpm's are with those 4.11's!

WTF is that thing??? LOL It looks good till the hood pops... I think that 600 would be a little much for a 2.8 though... maybe i'm wrong.
