Well, I got the air intake done, hope not to have to deal with water no more ? Played with the carb a little, made some adjustments to that, sealed up the Engine Box, Redone some of the wiring to spread out some of the amps on the switch panel & added some more relay's, & hope that takes care of the wire over loading problem ? & Had to fix's my grill after one run it got broke. hope to have good time at the Iron Wheel Bog !!

I have "two" already in the truck.

do you have a easy access panel to your motor on your boxed in front end? I got some hinges and pins for my hulk truck after almost burning my brand new motor up due too a few electrical misshaps lol

The Box is made of (4) panels that lock together with studs & pins, The top comes right off & the front panel hold it all together with two bolts, come apart very easy & fast. took me some time to get just right to all work together, but turned out nice. ( I think )

Just curious but is the motor completely boxed in, if so doesn't that keep the heat in and won't that keep the engine hot with no way for the heat to get out, even with two radiators? Just wondering keep up the good work it has came a long way sence u started
no rest for the wicked

not if your cooling system works right... mine was set up kinda like that and I had no issues!

The back side of the motor is open, The headers run out the bottom & I have them heat rapped, But I really don't know yet ?  I have only had it out once so far ? & had other problems with some of the wiring that made it get hot, I plan on getting the header coated to help with the heat in the box, so still trying to work things out, I did think about that but had to keep the water away from it. I'll find out soon ?

having the headers coated will make a huge difference. i sent a pair of my buddies to jet-hot and had them coated. he can drive for 30 min to my house open the hood and 10 min later hold the header. its crazy

Yea, I know I had the Headers for my car dun at Jet Hot in the (black) Inside & outside & yes In no time at all you can touch them NO problem !! Except the cost for it & the oversize shipping cost ! But Yes that is the plan.
