Engine Bay Super Sunday
It's Super Bowl Sunday and I am getting tired of all the hype on TV. So - let's see those beautiful engines!
This one is not mine. I found it at a local car show.

Nothing like you are showing above, just a plain ole L98 that I took off the major parts and had them powder coated.

Some amazing engine compartments! It's cool seeing a right-side steering C4 (blackozvette), and the Edelbrock crate engine, and most impressive is the Falconer (wheel based stretch) and the twin-turbo monster.
