Wow, that's pretty impressive. Could you share how much you paid? How much extra for the engraving? A set of those all polished up would do me just fine!

On another note, I'm looking to build a 408 myself. I've decided to wait until the new LS2 aluminum 6.0 block is out however. You must be pretty excited I can't wait until I finally get started with mine. Will you be using any power adders?

They were a bit under 500 bucks. But it was 80 bucks for the letters and I had them overnight shipped. So if i remeber i think it was about 300 just for the covers.

408 is going to stay all NA. for now. I can not stomach anymore cash going in to this car for now.

Where from? They look nice. Might have to invest more into the bling factor! Where did/are you locating the coils to?

Coils going up behind the engine. paid too much for a relocating kit from www.thunderracing.com

Going to eat jelly sandwiches for lunch for the next year to offset costs.
