M90 on a CARBED 5.0 PICS (finally here)

sorry it took so long guys.. Hope you enjoy... lotz of work still to be done (bodywork). Took awhile to get everything right , had to make a custom intake for the blower to fit on the edelbrock intake , then I had to make sure it cleared the distributer, , had to make a custom intake for the carb to sit on as well ,, it was said that I couldnt do this on a 5.0 from other forums.. But as you can see , hard work and patience pays off.. Hope you guys like it.. any questions let me know.. I wonder if I clean it all up ,do the body work , if this thing can make it in MM&FF.. LOL

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Yeah a few good close ups would be killer. I'd like to see how that intake is setup.

How do you put oil in the case with the unit upside down?  I take it you fill it before you put it on.

Hmm while I respect the fabrication I don't like how far it sits off the engine.  If you had built the lower intake ( i know a big pain in the ass)  You could have got it down low like a 3.8 does.  Those sharp bends look like they will hamper performance.

Congratulations, you shut some mouths....

 I like the Fabrication, good work man.

(EDIT) mmm, wait a moment, that means....can we build a Carbed 3.8 with the M90 ?
