Thumbs up

Definitely one of the cleanest and the best color too

Tuck isn't hard just time consuming and try doing it without removing the front fenders for bonus points....smh

Thanks! I've been better equipped financially to get caught up on some maintenance that I've put off for years. Nice to finally have everything sorted out again.

I'm finally ready to add to this thread!



I'm still missing a duct directly to the intake vent, but as it is now the intake is actually taking in ambient temp air.

Clean man, Just ditch that air pump bracket. Cut it down and paint it and mount the baro sensor on the ECU box.

I probably will, I was considering the filter relocation kit but haven't really put much thought to it yet. I am painting the strut brace brackets tonight and install it along with bleeding the clutch.

Just realized I've never posted in here! So many super-clean engine bays!


.
.
.
Recently extended the supercharger's coolant loop tubing (the long blue coolant-return tube used to curve directly downward from the top/back of the upper intake and run underneath the intake - right between the super-hot alternator and compressor, right on top of the engine block - not good for cooling at all!).
