Then and Now
 
Well finally got everything back together in the engine bay today. Valve covers are on (after breaking 2 of the chinese bolts that they came with :facepalm: ), fuel lines relocated, and nitrous mock-up is complete (just gotta wire it and install the purge kit once it arrives). Really gives it a whole new look. Figured I would share a before and after pic.

The day I bought the car September 2010:

Still on the list is a new polished or brushed radiator cover and the wire tuck mod once I have some extra money laying around...

coolmanvette75 03-23-2012 01:44 PM

You have a lot of things to get rid of young FRIENDS.

WildBillyT 03-23-2012 02:53 PM

Looks good. If you still have your stock AC hoses (and they aren't messed up) let me know.

coolmanvette75 03-23-2012 03:35 PM

I have all of the ac stuff but I cut the 2 hard lines on the bottom that go into the compressor. Everything else is in tact...

I think I talked to you at the track before, did you break your torque arm at the track a while back?
