It's a treat. Been wanting to do this for a while. Finally got off my butt and designed a tank. Had a local fab shop build it. 1/8 alum with an Earls Plumbing 3" cap. Will be easy to add ice and lots of room for it too. The stock tank holds 2 liters. This one will hold 5 liters. It's also out of the way and in a cooler location. Will post final pics this weekend. Happy Halloween to all!




Have to do some filing on the weld to get the cap to sit even.

 

Nice. Be interesting to see if this speeds you up at all

 

It may help a little now though my temps rise very little. However this will clean up the engine bay and make for great cooling when I go built with more boost.

 

Here's the finished product! Cleaned up the engine bay nicely.

 

Really cool Bro! What is that little air filter to the left of the supercharger? What purpose does it serve?

 

Looks like crankcase vent...

 

God dam it that's looks great.

Your motivating me again. My wallet is gonna be hurting unit.

 

Yes it is a crankcase vent. This one features a check ball to prevent any lean issues.

Thanks Ross! I really want to go built and make some real power. That or a Coyote swap.

 

Would love to see some one do a coyote swap into one of these trucks

 

Love my 3V but the Coyotes laying down 700+rwhp on 14psi, 17 degrees of timing, and 11.76af is killer. Seen that with Kenne Bell and a twin turbo setup. Built they are easily exceeding 1000rwhp.

 

Yeah I have already wrote a '3v cheque' that I still need to cash.

Coyote swap sounds like a blast but allot more work IMO not to mention the extra coin.

All you need is a built short block and some head work.

3v good for them numbers no worries. The newer body trucks run quick because of the 6 speed. Now that would be a good swap.

IIRC RAFA's 3v made 540RWHP @ 11psi and there was more in the table at that boost. Keep the faith.
