GaleForce's build

GaleForce · 01-30-2013, 05:15 PM

I fired it up today. Checked for leaks and topped up the oil. Confirmed that the gauges (other than the oil temp) are functioning properly. I found one leak on the output from the oil filter relocation fitting. A quick check with a wrench felt like it was as tight as it could be. I'll have to remove the fitting and re-do the Teflon then re-install. No biggie.

Yes, I do have video. It's not much to look at more for the noise. I'll have a look at it tonight and try to edit something to post up for you savages.

On another note. I'm thinking about doing a single 3" exhaust with it exiting the centre of the rear bumper (where the fog light is). I found a weld shop around here. I'm going to draw something up and ask if they can make a custom tip for me. Then when I get the exhaust guy to make the pipes for Sasha, I'll ask about fabricating the 3" exhaust.

A square tip that fills the entire hole would be dope. What would you do about the notches for the factory exhaust?

I'm looking at rebuilding that entire area. Maybe add some diffusers for looks.
