If you build another car anywhere close to this badass you could probably make a million bucks raffling off tickets for $1k each lol

Never picked up or touched a welder but my god that is like art work
Calling this artwork is a gross understatement. Joe stepped up his game 20fold. It qualifies as weld porn now

Wow.
Nice detail work in the bay! What colors are you going with on hot and cold sides of the turbos? Will they match the intake with the white on cold and the grey on hot? Will your weld porn stay natural or get coated?

Honestly I had an idea of what I was going
to do but as I’m seeing things take shape those ideas are changing. I don’t think I can coat/wrap those downpipes. They’re too pretty. I’m thinking polish those and let them color out naturally with heat. Turbine housings will be ceramic black. Was set on compressor covers and all cold piping being polished but now that may be adjusted
Come side starting to take shape now. Starting with the weld on vibrant van-Jen clamps and intercooler modification. $5 PayPal to the first person who can tell me why I had to have a slight angled pie section off the Intercooler to make the straight run to the TB
Good guess. No dice though. The inter cooler is dead center on the core support. The car won’t have AC. Here’s a hint.....engine orientation
Did you orient it slightly toward the passenger side while resting so when that engine's eating all it can it would be dead center?

Funny... I never noticed the motor was offset to the passenger side before. It always looked centered until you see it closer to the passenger shock tower. If that’s a factory layout it could be for more foot room for the driver, or to make room for the steering shaft? I am clueless

Correct. All mod motors are slightly oriented towards the passenger side. Steering shaft, driver room/weight offset, power brake equipment also needs room. You’d likely never notice until you look hard enough or in my case try to make a straight run from TB to center mount intercooler. Here’s a look straight down on the Saleen. Notice the valve covers and the alternator being off center
Weight distribution... cause driver?
Edit, too slow.
Edit, too slow.
Yep. It’s 5/8” offset
