Got some new engine bay bling!! ***pics inside***
by the way if anyone has an brushed aluminum MBA powersteering cap cover for sale or knows anyone that does let me know, because its the only one that I don't have. 
that looks freakin AWSOME!!! i love everything... thats the new insperation to my car.... but what i have been wondering.. where in the hell are the coil packs???? there no longer on the valve covers... where did they go???
blazinws6kush - I didn't get it from a sponsor so I can't post a link. Just google search for optima battery covers. Its about $15 and I just painted it silver to match.
stangkiller2005 and daryl2cb@yahoo.com - I used the coil relocation kit from thunderracing.

Basically it re-locates the coil packs to mount under the cowl. If you look in the second new pic and the close up of the driver side valve cover you can see the first coil pack attached to the cowl. Thunders site also has several pics showing where the kit re-locates them. I just painted my brackets black to "hide" them better.
And I am glad you guys like the new look.

how hard was it to get the coil packs up there??? it looks like you had a fun time getting them there... 
seems like it would suck even more when you want to change wires or something...

Actually it frees up an incredible amount of space. I could easily change plugs and wires in less than 15 minutes now and I wouldn't have the battle scars of the typical LS1 plug change.
The install is pretty straight forward. For me it was a 2-3 hour job including paint time. You basically take off the plastic cover over the cowl, drill holes assemble the coil packs on the provided mounts, install the new mounts, and cover everything back up by installing the plastic cowl cover.

hmmmm.. that dosnt sound to bad.... ima get me some of thoz relocation brackets when im ready for my head and cam swap....
and i also read that you can customise what the valve covers say.. i want mine to say "stangkiller"
looks so much better without all the clutter in there, great job. when doing the wire relocation where are you hiding the wires? is there a write up on this somewhere? cause it looks 100x better without all the wires.
