I am going to give you big ups on the valve cover timing cover cut-out. Never have seen anything like that before. You say the block is powder-coated? It looks like from the pics that it didnt cover the whole block evenly? OR is it just the pics?

might be the pix & some of the abuse that it recieved at the machine shop when they were boreing & honeing the engine for me, but yes it is powder coated. & the valve cover was just a neet little thing i thought of.. i'm obsessed with making things custom.

Woah. Totally different car! Looks awesome Tony. You're a lucky bastard to have all those painting and powdercoating tools on hand.

Where's your dumptube? I notice the flange is on there.

Not really digging the paint or wheels, but the turbo + nitrous setup looks wicked.

Crazy overspray with the powdercoating. I hope that doesn't mess with anything. You will probably also have some gnarly boost spike with that manifold.

I like my wheels! Due to the color scheme now, i've concidered Black 5 stars with a polished lip, but just don't have any money left at this point.. maybe next year.

thanks, suspension is Tokico 5 way adjustable struts & Skunk2 coil overs. I don't have a problem stoping so i never changed my drums over, it's an EX so it had a little larger calipars in the front.

never had a problem with boost creep b4 with this mani. I've run it at 4lbs & 18lbs & never had a problem yet. I'm gonna tune it to 450hp, with how ever much psi it takes to get there.
