*PICS* my LT1 engine bay dressed up

Decided to add some bling to the engine bay while in the midst of installing the LE2 setup...






Things are either polished or powdercoated. The ac condensor and brake lines have not yet been polished. Anything that is red will be either chromed or polished.

Its still far from being done. Im trying to enjoy the car for the time being since I have only put about 300 miles on it so far this year. The thought of driving it outweighs the thought or attempt to work on it.

Damn, that is very nice!! I can't wait until I install a new motor in my car because I'm going to pay attention to many details, much like how you did!

Nope, not a daily driver at all. I just had the car running for less than two weeks, and this years total mileage is just shy of 300 miles.

I need to get myself motivated to start back up working on her, instead of driving her.

Thanks for the compliments.

Someone either never drives their car to give it a chance to get dirty under the hood, or they had a lot of time on their hands. Beautiful looking engine bay man!

Re: *PICS* my LT1 engine bay dressed up

^I actually just got done installing my LE2 setup, so all the shiny pieces were purschased and installed when reinstalling the motor. Did not feel like putting the stock bland pieces on, and then installing the shiny parts later. Twice the work, not twice the fun.

I do take car of my car though. There is going to be a lot more shiny parts underneath the hood, its just the fact that I want to drive my car now since I did not start driving it this year until 2 weeks ago when the LE2 setup was complete. Driving the car now outweighs working on it.

Thanks for the compliments. Ill post pictures as more work progresses.
