Shop needed to hog out a 3" hole ...

Basically need a 3" hole all the way through the inlet port and bust it through the wall there Ron Jeremy style...

The inlet is just under 3" by a few mm if i remember right...

Are you going to use the blower case as an intake mani for the turbo build, with a block off plate?

Possibly... once I get the hole blasted out, I need to figure out how i want to
approach the rest of the case... the bottom of it will be knocked out for sure,
but I am not sold on just block off plate.. I would like to hack off the part of the case where rotors go and have some aluminum sheet metal tig'd on to angle the airflow downwards towards the back side of the case... instead of big open cavity and a flat wall to slam into...

If I can score a premade turbo intake manifold i'll go that route, but i really don't want to go L36/L26 manifold. If i do change intake manifold setup would be for one off an FBody to relocate intake on passenger side.. but I am not to keen right now on relocating battery... but maybe...

Reason I am wanting to keep the L67 intake manifold setup and blower case, is if i get the wild hair to run a normal A/A IC.... then toss under the blower case a typical ZZP A/W IC and use that run to an Ice bucket setup for the track for those nice hot days...

Actually never mind on this.. decided not to be a douche and just do the f-body intake manifold setup.
