Finally made some progress!
Got em primed...
... and painted. (no clear coat in this picture)
I'm gonna buff them to get the orange peel out later on this week. I still haven't got my cam in so I haven't made much progress elsewhere....
I'll update when I can!

So I finally got some work done!
I got my cam and springs in (freakin' finally) and I got to tear into my engine. The cam is EPS 234/246 .601/.607ish and patriot gold dual springs. You can also see some of the tubing from deleting the EGR.
That was a good pic of my red coils and the valve covers before I painted them. Here's the after....
Maybe I should have painted my coil bracket too. Eh I might end up doing that. On anther note, I got my covers done! I also painted the plastic piece by the hood latch black to match. I still might go back and paint my windshield wiper reservoir.
I pretty happy with it so far! I have to finish installing the springs this weekend and hopefully I can get to the wire mod soon...
Since my dad's car seems to be popular, here are a couple of pics from this weekends local show, the Blue Suede Cruise.
