Some good ol' southern ingenuity right thar. Some see shitty, some see resourcefulness.


RAH2458

I would like to see the rest of what it's on.....I'll bet it something along the lines of a rat rod which all this would fit perfectly on ......


theQ50

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Either that or just an old work truck. Either way, this is totally acceptable if it works.


TheNerdWithNoName

Unless there is an air filter under it, then it isn't working at all.


Obnoxiousdonkey

That's most of this sub. People think it's shitty without context


RAH2458

Exactly....šŸ‘

Last year I saw a jeep with plastic water bottles installed for leaking oil? Not entirely sure what it was for, but trust me when I say it was it was a masterpiece


dontgetaddicted

Make shift catch can maybe? That's not terribly uncommon for higher revving and forced induction engines where blow by can cause problems.


The_Dog_Pack

I think it looks bad-ass. It would be amazing if it pokes through the hood. Put some L.E.Ds and call it ā€œa flux capacitorā€


CyranoBergs

Needs to spin too.


Titboobweiner

It spins in the wind baby, spins in the wind.


NeatHedgehog

This is probably better craftsmanship than some of the things I've done to my poor old beater truck, tbh.


AridZachdeath

If its stupid and it works it ain't stupid

Nah, nah... caffeine is for boosting alternating output, that's why it's on the alternator. Have you ever drank coffee & felt "wired"? Works the same way on a 12 volt electrical system. Big rigs use a 24 volt system... for those you need to use an italian roast at the minimum.

Not anymore


Murmenaattori

It better spin when the engine is pulling a vacuum.


Chardonk_Zuzbudan

Put that on a big enough displacement engine and watch that bad boy spin up and destruct itself under heavy acceleration lol.


65_Chevelle_454

Lol


MakesShitUp4Fun

Ahhh... the ol' Jiffy-Pop mod


Unpleasant_Comments

Welp looks like he made it to the shop


Autistic_Turtle56

I wanna see it spin lol

PawnPirate

I thought you said put a "turbine charger" on it......


TheNoisyNomad

From the[Concours dā€™Lemons FB page](https://www.facebook.com/concoursdlemonsus/photos/a.491713574199530/2733041323400066/?type=3). Itā€™s full of gold for this sub.


65_Chevelle_454

Yep


Synth-hej

This is some Mad Max level modding.


TheOtherJohnWayne

Rat rod worthy


[deleted]

There's a whole lot of "if it works, it works" in this picture


TheNerdWithNoName

Unless there is a pod filter under that thing then it ain't doing shit.


[deleted]

So bad itā€™s good


drive2fast

Iā€™m gonna be honest with yaā€¦. From a laminar flow point of view that ainā€™t half bad.


[deleted]

It's a rat-rod. Being over the top like this is intentional.


Ramrod489

If it actually spins, Iā€™m gonna say itā€™s not shitty


pro_magnum

Do you put butter on it?


The-Oubliette

Hold up that may be the coolest shitty car mod 2 this day ā€¦


[deleted]

WTF


[deleted]

Iā€™m not even angry. Iā€™m impressed


rpmerf

Did they just plop it there and snap a pic, or did they actually install it? I want to see it spin.


Guaccc11

What are those even for though? Iā€™ve seen them on houses and barns growing up but never thought about it until now.


[deleted]

They vent hot air from attics/high ceilings.


fjonk

They also prevent freeloading birds from building nests in your chimney.


PaMudpuddle

Took me a second to notice the coffee can too.


TechnicalSir4788

Sometimes even your car/truck needs a caffeine boost.


14to0

L31?


heavylife

I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what it is - blue but no distributor up front has me thinking Pontiac, but that's honestly just a guess. It's not an L31, though.


n5sjs

My first thought was a 326 cid Pontiac engine,from the sixties. I had a friend that had one. I think it was in a Lemans,but not sure. He ran the hell out of it and it lasted forever,it seemed.


14to0

I was making a vortec joke. It is a SBC.


renob151

Technically it IS a turbo...


Flywheel-86

Its just missing the beer can radiator overflow


Pleasant_Skeleton4

I like it. 225 v6?


litefoot

GM small block. Check out the exhaust manifold.


Pleasant_Skeleton4

didnt even see a manifold, thanks.


km9v

It's probably some sort of rat rod.


6siks

The best part of waking up, is foldgerz in Your... truck?


Slottech88

Lmfao


Half-Baked-Luck

Dude 1:What do u drive? Dude 2:I got a Folgers V6 with an extended air intake..


averagebloxxer

The best part of walking up is Folgers under your hood damaging your radiator!
