Wheel well Question...

[TurboStrong]

yo Zilvia whatsss upppp, Any way I saw that some of you cut out ur wheel wells and are not tubbing, i really want to tub my car but i just dont have sufficient funds, my question is how much of a hassle is it when it rain's since theirs just two big holes in ur engine bay?

do u have a special air filter?

any info will be much appreciated!

What do you mean? I guess you don't have a welder... The tubs can be had for 30 bucks or less. lol

really.....

hahaha i feel stupid, and yeah i dont have a welder!

I just want to know what issue's people run into when they cut out their wheel wells and dont tub them.

cut ur tub, make your measurement.. go to your local muffler shop to weld it for you..

done and done.

probably only issue you get is a dirty ass engine bay.

when it comes to special intake, i dont think there is unless it one of those AEM intake with that foam coupler but If it get soak in water.. one thing comes to mind. hydrolock.

why the f would you cut out your fender wells and leave it.....maybe if you had a front tube chassis. people that do that don't dd it like that.

What do u guys usually cut ur tubs with?
plasma cutters?

cutting wheel on a grinder/air saw... or a sawzall... or a combination of both.

Best suggestion would be to grab some trailer fenders from an auto store. They're PERFECT for tubbing an S-chassis.

If you cut and prep everything yourself everything could be had and welded for pretty cheap.
