Checking out the spot welder on a little scrap price. Looks like I will be able to do what I had imagined. This material is so thin it doesn't have any strength. I wanted to put a doubler on the bottom edge all the way around.

I'm thinking that the spot is to hot, it burns through quickly. So I filed the points flat to get a larger contact area. It worked and I might do some more.

I think that results are really good and I will probably do more.

I did the floor for the plenum on other side today. Looks good and I feel good about the progress.

Today I was fitting the outside edge of the plenum to the inner fender well. It came out so good that I'm calling it Cazadores time.

More progress
Very bad pics. I'll try again later.
Well it's later now and I got the pic.

Now we'll see if the pic is better.
I like that...

I hope this answers any questions about Cold Air Intake.

And the scoop.

I see a couple of spots that need to be fixed. And some hoses that need routing oh and I have to make up the seal for the bottom of the carbs. Still probably a week away, maybe 2.

Fitting the plexiglass on the passenger side.

I had no idea how this was going to tie into the plenum. All I had to do was bend the top up 90° on the inside of the body panel.

New breather installed. Figured out the hose to the oil tank. I need a 90° for that.

Just another picture of a dream I had about air.

Cold Air in, more horse power out.

Once the other side is all screwed in I'll start making up the seals. This thing is fragile and I believe the motor would break all the spot welds.

Everytime I think that it's just a week away it's more than a month. I'm worse than Elon.

When I started all of this stuff about aero I had no idea that I was going to make a Double Breasted Biplane but here it is. The plenum is very close to being finished. After that I need to get back to the front of the car as there is some wiring and screwing on the front wing brackets. Then I will set up a picture shoot and give Sean and Scott the pictures that they requested years ago. This is looking much better than I expected.
