Bouchillon Performance provided me with 2 radiator hoses ( upper BPE22039G and lower BPE2039G to fit the new hemi ) They had to be trimmed to fit, I found that these were the nears thing I found without going to those ugly flex hoses. 7707001-100_3009.jpg (101 downloads)

But not as much as the top frame 7744042-100_3079.jpg (120 downloads) Last edited by johnscudashop; 06/15/13 05:42 PM.

I am waiting on a 60 deg bend to connect the shaker base to the air box inlet tube.

Do you think this is because of the extended rockers? It really gives the rear a bold look. Interesting work. Thanks for sharing!
