Well I got started on what I thought was gonna be a nightmare, the hood, but after making the cut, its not gonna be too bad.






Also, got my Billet Valve covers from Joe Hellmann Today, they are freakin sweet.

You should put a cowl induction hood or unless you plan on keeping it that way.

Got my new ported intake today. It flowed 55% better on a flow bench over stock. Last piece in the puzzle is here. Nice work Doug.

The bling is on. Have had no time to clean it up and polish it, also on the drivers side, I am going to make a mount to get the FICM out of the way so you can see the whole valve cover. What do they say, if you can't make it go, make it shiny. LOL
