I use to have red flames on the fender wells, red wire loom, red stb, and just freakin red everywhere.
I decided to clean things up when I got my motor apart for the cam swap, this is how it turned out, everything is either aluminum color or flat black. let me know how it looks. I need a polished alternator pulley/fan like no other. I need one piece of black wire loop about 3.5 feet long if anybody wants to donate so I can match.-see pic-

check out the NOS pic in my sig to compair.

 

I remember seeing your old flame picture earlier. The cleaned up version has my vote. Clean and simple. Nice.

 

I like the new look much better, very clean. IMHO understated is always better.

Good job
