Nice set-up skinny, and the color of your engine bay is killer.

Stockers, with coil bosses and all grooves welded and filled. Rattle can titanium and clear coat. Sorry the manifolds are blocking most of them.

Veee8 - Don't worry about not seeing the valvecovers, but with that set-up i could careless what they look like.

I agree with Soultkr, that BBK manifold looks sweet in black.

Yes, it's the Weiand/Holley/Lingenfelter or whatever you want to call it. It was orignally a satin finish that I smoothed and polished. Not quite as shiney as the manufacturer's polished version, but I like it that way.

I first went with black covers and orange brackets but decided I wanted more color in the engine since it'd mostly be covered anyways. I should have painted a couple more things orange but I was impatient. Oh well next time I pull the engine. I went with the orange rattle can engine high heat paint though.
