Nice progress! did you just unbolt the brake booster and move it over so the valve cover would clear?

SVTLink · Sep 13, 2009

Yes, I did just unbolt the brake booster and wedged it over to clear the valve covers. I did however crack my power steering resivoir when messing with the valve cover. This isn't a hard project, took me and a friend about a day and a six pack to get this far.

I did about the same mods as you a few weeks ago! You'll love it

wait... no cooling mod?

SVTLink · Sep 13, 2009

Well as a matter of fact I do have the cooling mod, but it's not on yet. Forgot to list her on there. Thanks for all the kind words, she's coming along nicely.

You'll love the Whipple. Remember to get it tuned for your new setup.

Looks like a fun project. Good luck with it. She should rip after its done & tuned!

Okay, I want to first apologize for the crappy photos, but its faster to take pixs with my Iphone. So here are the pixs of the powedercoated parts. I'll place them on the car later today if things go well. Enjoy!

Okay so I'm not behind schedule, but I'm defintely not where I want to be right now. I head out of town this sat and don't return till wed or so. I have to knock out as much as possible, but these are the parts I had powedercoated in Wrinkle Black and Red (I forget the exact color, but its not Torch Red). I think it looks pretty good. Lemme know what you guys think. I'm gonna put the valve covers in later today if all goes well.

Update

This is what the car currently looks like. I still am waiting on the whipple...so as soon as she comes in I should get her up and running soon. ::crosses fingers:: The coil covers blend in really really well even tho it isn't exactly torch red like my car.
