Lol Jesse......wish the pic was better, but will this work for a little while? Shawn said the shutter speed is slow, but I think he was shaking 
Still a handful of items on the engine bling to-do list....but you get the idea. I've been in limbo as far as putting things together, still waiting on parts, powder, plate, misc
. More progress pics to come....

It isnt going to take that long! Looks like a little cowl "adjustment" will be required to make this intake fix, so now it appears getting this done before the snow flies isnt going to happen.
Brent, you finally got your manifold! I love the CF runners. It looks like it was well worth the wait. The engine and manifold look like a work of art. Congrats.
When is Shawn getting it on the dyno?

Very, very nice. Just went through the whole thread. Great looking build.
Love the carbon fiber looking parts and that Kinsler intake is NASTY! Those FIKSE wheels are going to look great on your car.

A few more pics to come once she's taken a spin in the dyno room, but a little more of a complete picture in what this thing is going to look like. I accessorized most of these pieces "blind" as I wanted to make sure most of the cosmetic stuff was complete at assembly so I didnt have to do it when it got in my hands. Some of the touches include:
Fabbed valve covers and timing cover in GM Storm Grey powder
Chrome Valley cover
Polished Fuel Rails
Red tbody linkages (anodized)
Polished Meziere w/p
More pics to come....
Couple misc boxes showed up the other day rounding out what should be all of the "big" pieces.
Lonnies Double Pumper (purchased thru Nasty)
A little more bling.....why not?
