looks good, red and yellow do go well together in a ferrari theme.
ever think of painting the black part around the spark plug cover, red? to match the intake? (duplicolor-metalcast-red)

Mickey-D's... Ronald McDonald...

Why'd you put up two pictures that are like the exact same? At least put a return after the first one, so I don't have to scroll to the right! Just playin.

Easy install, wasn't it?!

nothing wrong with ketchup and mustard! haha

and yeah canadianshark, i plan on doing exactly that with the rest of the valve cover. i've spent a grand on that car in the last 2 months though, so it's time for me to chill out for a while with the mods. it's like crack, isn't it boys? haha

and yes REDZ! i'm with you here... PHUCK those hose covers! i can't believe what a pain in the ass they are, and they never get snug or tight at all. either way, i was just experimenting. you know how it is. 8^)
i didn't realize how much of an eyesore they are until after i put that one on. you're right about another thing too.... that manifold is just BEGGING to say 'AIR RAM' on it!

and Chris, yes.... it was very easy to install. your pics gave me a good reference to start hackin' away at that shroud. thanks for that shish daddy-o! and i got rid of that second pic for ya'. it WAS a different pic, just exactly the same in appearance i guess.... good call though.

thanks for the comments everybody! good or bad, it's all beneficial to me.
