Looking good man. We'll have to hook up somewhere when you're done. I should be at about the same pace you are now.. Just waiting for Josh (Hotrex) to send me the manifold he welded up for me and I'll be putting mine together.

Na. I expected to wait a little, but I've bought a couple things from him now and the last thing I bought I received 6 days after paying for it. It has been a little while on the manifold though, but I know he'll send it soon cuz I need to before I can hit the HMT meet at his place

Thanks guys, i got my Custom Coach Intercooler to fit today. It was kind of a pain because i had to notch out about 1/4" of the steel beam in the bumper to get it to fit, and misc things needed to be ground out. I also had to relocate the ps cooling tube to behind the hood latch support in front of the radiator, which meant i had to notch the front sheetmetal in the core support... It was alot of work but the damn thing fits with room to spare and looks sweet!

lookin' good if i don't say so myself. grind them welds down and get a layer of topcoat and you'll be in business.

i just need to get a TIG so i admire the beauty of perfect welds.. then again i wouldn't have as much of a chance to sport Mr. Cuddly Face

for the compressor outlet tube im gonna use the stock ford piece. You can find them on ebay for like $5-$10, i search under ford turbo and a few other things, but you can get them cheap there.
