OMG that Fire Pic on the second page is Insane. That is my New Wallpaper.

I also Love the Black and Chrome with Blue ghost flames. Those are the 2 best.

Makes me jelous to not have a Vette engine compartment.

Hey, come on now...there is nothing wrong with embracing "the big guy" !!

I have seen that Pens 'vette in person...it wouldn't have been my first choice, theme-wise, but the airbrush work is phenomenal...

Some of those other bays are just rediculously sharp...

Lots of time into a lot of those. Some of them I don't like, and think they are a little much. But a lot of them are pretty interesting. I actually like the first pic of the blue one with the magnacharger the best. It's simple, and that dark blue and chrome/polished look is one of my favorites.

some of those look really sharp, there seemed like there were a few that were "overdone" though.

Damn those Vette guys. Even stock, their engine bay is 1000x cleaner, sleeker, and better looking. Not to mention its easier to work on.
