What ever happened to good looking Chevy engines?
Hmmm, yes Z284, it does look a little TPI-like. Funny though, an intake that looks a little like TPI and a suspension setup that's pretty similar to Third Gens, where are they going with this?

I can definetly relate to this one.
Nowadays you can pop the hood on a car and have to look for the engine in a sea of wires and plasic.
Anyone see under the hood of the new(er) porsche SUV?
That was the worst ever. EVERYTHING was covered by plastic. [I was viewing one at the auto show] ...Some pieces were even loose, so I made the comment "what happens when you hit a bump? All this plastic would probably fall right out of here..." Some random guy next to me laughed and one of the porcsche guys gave me the look ( :blah: ) If I were to spend 80 grand on one of those, I'd be in there with the ball-pene (or however you spell that)

For one thing though... engne compartments have gotten more and more crowded with hoses, wires and other bits needed to meet emissions and whatnot.

Absolutlely no comparison. You can't see any part of the engine! Nothing but hoses, wires, and vacuum lines...

Those old 80's engines looked like spaggetti!
