    The last time you saw this Chevelle we fabricated the entire hot and cold side of this turbo system! Now it's time to make it look like a show car with some sleek sheet metal for the engine bay! Before we even begin the metal fab process, we get our hood in place with some shiny new billet hinges. Then we're taking you through the process of designing these custom closeout panels with a little help from some old school CAD (cardboard aided design). From there we go ahead and transfer all of our stencils to sheet metal, cut them out, and show you how to weld them all together without ending up with a funky shape! Then we tie it all together with a set of BMW hood latches

    Absolutely love these videos full of fabrication work! One suggestion: Let us know how many days it's been in between steps or how long a step has taken. Obviously we see that your outfit has changed so we know at least some time has passed, but it's cool to know the steps took X number of days or hours to complete. Helps to drive home just how much time and energy you're putting in to this build.

      That's a bit harder to do because there will be times where we're jumping around from multiple projects like the EV truck and our other builds. But we'll try to give it a shot in the future! Thanks for the support & feedback!

      @@SalvagetoSavage its definitely harder to do when jumping around, but buying like a cheap digital clock and just hitting the timer function and letting it run in the shot somewhere gives a pretty good idea of how long some of these processes take

    Nice work! Quesion though. Why are you cutting squares on the plasma and then manually bandsawing the rest, as opposed to putting the full pattern in the plasma and letting it do the work?

    • @SalvagetoSavage
      @SalvagetoSavage  Před 2 lety

      It's faster for us to cut them manually when we only have one or two of the same shaped piece to cut. We cut them from hand from our template instead of having to take that template, calculate all the lengths, figure out all the angles of the compound curves it has, transfer that onto the CAD program and cut it.

    Will there be enough give in the exhaust and intake systems for when the engine torques on the mounts? Knowing that it's going to put out some pretty high horsepower and torque, the car is going to flex.
