Though i'm not sure what good my LT1 pic does you.

Question. Are those fuel-rail covers sanded smooth or just painted?

Wow!!
That is the most awesome display of workmanship I’ve seen yet.
I’m sure all the blood, sweat, and tears were worth it.

I can't stop staring at it

Thanks a lot. I wish I could take credit for it, but I can't. A well known Vette guru has had the car and has been working on it for the past 22 months. Everything in and on the car is being redone, including the engine, suspension, interior, brakes, transmission - pretty much everything. When he's done, it probably will be the finest example of any 85 on the planet. In the next issue of Corvette Fever, there will be a part I write-up of the engine build. The HP is estimated to be near 500 - hence my screen name. The following month will be part II. If anyone wants more pictures or wants to see what I have (so far), send me an e-mail (corvette-kid@comcast.net) and I'll send them to you.
