ugpbmx Posted October 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2011 ok some more updates. the car is running great, so much fun to drive, even though it is auto. I moved my battery to the rear. i have a battery holder made to put a sealed battery in the spare tire well but for now i has the unsealed one were it is now. my sealed batt is on the way. I also fabbed up a full length CAI so im pulling in fresh cool air. And i move some of the wiring around i think its looking pretty damn clean. painting the cai wrinkle black.

I can definitely feel a difference through out the RPM range. MY TRUCK BUILD - 1976 F-100 Ranger. Fully built 482 big block, 4 DC lvl4 15's in a blowthrough, plenty of custom fabrication.
