Not so regular cab Chevy - Back in business


Recommended Posts

Well I have just gotten around to starting the log though ive done all of this within the last 2 weeks other than the truck window comming out, that all happened today. The story behind my madness, this truck is my grandmas but she gave it to me since she cannot drive anymore, i wanted to do a blowthrough but my dad doesnt want it to have a big hole in it, it only has 83,XXX miles on it and incase we want to sell it or something idk. So i worked with him and we came up with a modified blowthrough.... On with the pics!

The beginnings of the box, youll see why it is designed this way later. But right now it is at 7.1 cubes net, ~34 Hz, 103.5 inches of port area

Fiberglass for some extra strength

Damn thats a sexy rear end :-P

Amp mounted to back wall

Everything soldered

Start of big three. I have 2 batteries stock from the factory so hence the unusally huge amount of wire/fuses for a big three, i added 1/0 for every single stock wire i could find for the charging system. Btw its KnuKonceptz Fleks cable.

No one run connects the batteries together and one run goes to the alternator. The connecting + run is fused on both ends, each run from each batt is fused. You actually cant see my run from the batt to the amp in any of those pics lol. But no not yet. I plan to upgrade to another 1500 and LV4's in the future maybe after my freshmen year of college (this year). So when i upgrage i will do 2 runs probably along with a batt or two in the rear. Ordering iraggi alt the first of the month.

Looks good!

what are the fuse holders on the batt?

They are audiopipe.. found them on ebay for pretty cheap. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=130065430775

They fuse my big 3. The wire connecting the batts in paralell and the run from each batt to the alternator
