    Are you going to polish the intake at least?

      I might. I prefer the down to Earth bad ass effect of natural aluminum. I've considered polishing, but I'm really not into any of that flashy stuff.

        Don't polish it to a shine just get the oxidation off and maybe throw a coat of engine silver paint on it.

          No paint! I plan to hit it with some cleaner to get the oxidation off, but I'm not painting it.

                As long as it works and runs like a raped ape who cares. My intake is about 3-4 colors.

                    The red alternator was already explained in a different thread. It was initially built for my brother's red Toyota Celica, but it didn't fit right, so when my alternator went out, I used that one.

                    The red ignition coil is a Summit brand pushing 40,000 volts.

                          I don't need to clean and detail in an attempt to make a stock engine look cool like you do. :evil:

                              Thanks. Let's just say I'm glad the throttle cables are on the back side of the EGR. It's ugly. Very functional, but ugly. I'm planning to hunt down the Lightning spacer and grab a new throttle cable bracket at the pull apart when I get that.
