That's some good ---- right there! After seeing that top mount in an ED/EF chassis is kinda making me change my mind about doing a slow-*** n/a build.
I gotta ask...what type of piping did you use to make the top-mount? It looks like steel gas line piping that was put in a bender, but I'm not 100% sure. Oh, and how is radiator fitment with that monster under there?
