Mine's not hidden, but at least flat. If you wanted to hide it completely, build a false floor maybe 3-4" above what I've got; let the bass come out the front.

I did the flat setup as well, using the storage bins as a box. I really like your setup. I need to pretty mine up, right now it is just bare MDF with the amp mounted on top.

Let me quote a line from Mad Max..." The blower man look at the blower!.... :cool: "
Here's a stunning example of a car done up right it looks mean as hell, like if you get too close it might eat ya, it has that racer on the street look without looking like the ricer racers....and it has the big brass ones to back up it's look....Well done!.... :thumbs:
I'm scared to ask, but how hard is that blower to install and about what price range can one be had for.....
Cheers, C.

It has the racer look because it is; I roadrace with NASA ans ASRA out here. Yeah it's amusing when the ricers pull up next to me with their fart pipes and rap music; I just rev my engine I little and scare them away :mad

Mine's an ATI procharger kit and runs around $4k depending; I installed in two weekends with my dad helping out. Great results just by itself; but 24lb injectors and headers/exhaust would definitely be good.

Thanks for the kind words; it's nice to find someone who appreciates mods rather than shinyness. I'm currently at 435rwhp / 505rwtq; but am adding a SuperRam for more RPM and a smaller blower pulley....

I guess my first love is customs mostly c-3's my 81 keeps getting more and more radical, it will be one of those cars people will love or hate with little middle ground I'm going for an old school 70's custom look with it....no metal flake paint though...lol but I really dig cars on the street that look like they drove off a track yours has that...

I appreciate works of engineering art like yours, I have even seen a few imports that I couldn't help but respect the work in the engine/drive trains, but geez when I learned the huge price these people pay to go fast in rice....if you check out my post under off subject "steamed or fried" that car is stunning.....and it's gotta be blistering fast.....I'm sure the kid racers give you the look but then again I bet they mostly see your rear tail lights getting smaller....
Cheers, C.
