Default 382 owners

I need a couple pics of the engine compartment PLEASE!

I am removing the engines and Prochargers that were installed in my 2002 382. It appears the ram that lifts the hatch was moved both where it meets the "floor" and on the bottom of the hatch. Could someone take a few pics of the factory locations so I can return mine that way. (The Prochargers aren't going back in!!!)

Also, if you have 500EFI's, take a few pics of the oil filter location and mounts. Mine were moved and bolted to the stringers and I want to put them back where they came from too.

Thank you to anyone that can help me out, I'll owe you a beer or 2 if you come to the Winter Chill Out this Jan.

Russ C.

J.B. Those may just be perfect!!! There are another set of holes in both the "floor" and on the bottom of the engine hatch. I can tell from your pics that I need to move both mounting locations to the other holes. The oil filters look like they just removed the mounting brackets and secured them the the stringers so putting them back should be easy. I was suprised to see the power steering resevoir mount beside the oil filter. Apparently that has been relocated also.

Thanks, I owe you one....or one too many!!

Russ,

Some photos of the treadplate in my engine compartment. The lift attached at the two holes seen in the center extension between the two hinged outer sections that flip up.

That diamond plate looks awesome....just gave me another idea!! Maybe I can get that done too while the engines are out. Where did you get the diamond plate, is it just regular sheet metal that you cut to fit? (oh, and I see where the ram mount was, that's where I'll need to move mine when the engines go back in.)

Aluminum treadplate from Tri-State Aluminum here in Toledo. Cut from the old pattern, then I had it powdercoated in clear so it wouldn't corrode. Some other photos:

I know...just call me Craig (old school)!!!
The 500's will look like stock 500's but won't be when we're finished. They won't make as much power as before, but they should run alot longer!!! The previous set-up was good for 94+ on GPS, hopefully the new will get me to 85.
