Another small update here, made a mount for the valves, hopefully I can get them all wired and plumbed tomorrow night.

Its lookin good. I hope to start bagging my car soon, Altho i wont be able to lay on my 14x7's. Maybe at another point ill make a switch to some 18's, or something. Im usually against 20's on a Gbody, But it looks great laid.

My only concern is, I seen you mention sub's.. Hows the sound gonna get threw, Now that you've sealed your trunk off?

Also, Do you have buckets in front? If so, You could build a console down the road, and not even have to worry about the middle of the back seat being comfy.


Keep up the good work!
 
Looks good the only down side to the valves for the front being so far back is it will take alot more pressure to lift the front, i originally did mine off the tank in the rear and when i moved them towards the front under the car it was a huge difference. As long as you do 200 psi it will be fine.

well not sure what i am going to do for subs now, i wasnt going to keep the bridge in view, was just going to cover it all, allowing space for the subs, but i think keeping the bridge and valves in view like that will end up looking good. i will figure it out later, i did audio for 11 years professionally, so i will have to come up with something cool.

yeah but it was too fast for me, so this will take care of it, i am thinking about use 3/8" lines or even 1/4" lines to slow the back down alot too.

forgot, i have the bench seat up front and think i want to keep that at least right now. i may do a full custom dash, if i do i may incorporate a down firing 10" on the passenger side since the heater box will be gone. may do an old school steel dash though instead. i have so many ideas in my head anymore, not sure where i want to go with it.
