New top end project

Since I'm more about the look of these things then the performance I figure i'd post these pics here. I'm going to do the LT4 conversion to Epic over the next year. So far I've got me my Edelbrock LT4 intake (polished the runners a bit with a dremmel just to clean up the rough spots), new fuel rails, new 30lb. injectors, 58mm TB with custom plate and I repainted my trottle cable cover and fuel rail covers since they were getting a little grungy.















Once I get my tax refund I'm planning my LT4 edelbrock heads and the LT4 hot cam kit as well. Anyone recomend a good PCM tuner?

Same as the intake, red with black stripes. I think the intake would look a bit wierd if the car was any other combination of colors.

Personally I would get rid of the TB cover. I think the aftermarket TBs look super duper.

Good job!

Very nice - I opted to do black where your red is and a high polish look where your black is.

Very well put together - I like the TB cover on this one.

Looks good. The fuel rail covers really helped out. My only critique would be to lose the bowtie, it seems to be a bit much.

Looks good man! I just did mine last spring. The throttle cable cover seems to stick out to much, maybe its cause its centered in the pic but it really stands out. I may have done some more black in it somewhere

So far so good. Mostly just parts collecting thus far. Hope to have it done in time for my yearly car show May 30th.
