Thanks,
I had stainless laying around I beleive 12 or 14 awg and had 1" of it bent down so I could use the factory holes to attach it to the radiator support. If I could do it again I would use aluminum because I can polish that real easy. The stainless is real tough and hard to polish.

I would like to do the valve covers red too someday.

Looks sweet! Mind if I borrow your e-fan cover idea? That looks pretty nice.

BTW, Castrol Super Clean works awesome! I used it to clean the front suspension when I did my brake upgrade and it did wonders. How much do you dilute it for cleaning under the hood?

Don't mean to be nosey, but mind if i ask how much that set you back. I really like what they did with it. A buddy of mine told me not to mess with the Throttle Body, be it aftermarket, or porting, unless i was gonna add some laughing gas or a supercharger. He has the BBK on his and said he didn't think it helped him till he added the NOS. What are your thoughts on that?

Very clean motor
