Well This is just an update that I promised to put up on my Engine and Engine bay work. This isn't going to be the finished produce since I do plan on doing internal work for an FI Build...I've done every bolt-on minus headers, for obvious reasons, and am just bored of the NA power game with the VQ.

Well enough of the boring stuff...on to the TEASER pics!

Before:







After: **Will get better pictures taken and not just on my phone shortly**

 

Thats alot of red and chrome! Looks pretty good though, keep it up!

 

Thanks, I'm waiting for my GTSPEC Strut and will be getting a few more things as well to finish of the looks...well the FI will be the finishing touch but that'll be later this year hopefully when she's all paid for.

 

some nrg hood struts would make it look better

 

was gonna go with NRG but heard the chrome rusts over a short period of time...still looking for a good set of hood dampers. I also have a build that I may purchase that is capable of holding 650sh WHP soon but I want to do it correctly and by myself/someone i can trust...can't skip on quality and knowledge.

 

lookin good holmes.. lots of changes since you were at my place.. good work..

I heard it was just the fasteners? They look/say they are stainless but are actually made outta InstaRust material? I would say get em and tape off and paint the fasteners red!

Or get the $120 Tiens and prolly have the same thing happen

 

so much chrome. need sunglasses!

 

Bay looks good.

^^^I found this while searching for something else, looks like an inexpensive mod. I might have a set of bnib tein hood dampers for sale. Im debating if I want to install them...

 

thanks guys!

I'm not getting tein because green and red does not flow well, lol...but someone said that the ebay ones (yes i know and don't touch ebay parts) surprisingly are pretty damn good and haven't rusted. Still may order the chrome NRG and possibly get new fasteners depending on how they hold up.

 

some parts that will be on in the near future will be the rest of the Z1 hoses, GTSPEC strut with brackets powdercoated red, possibly some Pi-thon locks, polish or chrome the JWT heat shield, polish my ingalls torque damper brace, Polished aluminum fluid reservoirs, Oil catch can, etc...
