That valve cover looks good. So when is the turbo going on

[iceracerdude]

Very clean install! What did you use on that E manifold? You didn't do an air filter did you?

[mckabe]

thanks, and for the exhaust mani i used vht hight temp paint. Im running a filter, just not visible from those pics

[mckabe]

Oh and the carbon fiber spark plug cover i a going to start selling t hem... if ur interested let me know so i can see how much interest there is

[kumalaba]

youve done a great job & that engine bay is super clean. hows it run?

[mckabe]

RUns like a charm, its begging for a better exhaust. Thanks and still cleaning thats my thing. the car has no rust but a lot of dents, so i like have one thing look nice. and if anyone needs powder coating done i have a buddy who does it for cheap. He did my valve cover, fuel rail and fpr. My friend has a bpt tracer and he did his valve cover white and im making him a plug cover, looks gorgeous

[mckabe]
