My 300,000 Mile Lt1. Bought this car about month ago and have been steadily cleaning under the hood every weekend.It was Bone Stock when I bought it, with the exception of the Arizona Speed & Marine TB Plate.Runs very good for the mileage. No Leaks whatsoever under the car

I am going to install new valvecovers and longtubes very soon. Would also like to move that alternator, very ugly sitting right there. Enjoy

Yes... They are VERY easy to make look good. I think I used turtle wax chrome polish on them. Mag wheel polish would work good too. Also polished the fins on the intake manifold between them, but the pic doesn't show it too well

As it sits. I operate a small powdercoating shop so I'll post up some more pics after I decide on what to do for my intake. Water pump housing and valve covers

The alternator is relocation on the bottom driver side. This setup keeps the alt, ac, and power steering.
