For those of you who've taken the SR off and on several times know, access to the runner to plenum bolts is a horrible design.

Look at the above test fit pic and I think you will pick up right away one of the modifications the shop made to my plenum, the runner bolts can now be installed from the inside of the plenum.

All shiney bling is off the motor and the supercharged, everything is being reworked in black winkle coat and brushed aluminum. The shop is also making a custom aluminum radiator shroud to replace the plastic piece.

The above picture is too dark, but I'll post some better photos soon.

Not bad.

The old long bolt through the lid trick, or am I missing something? I'm not seeing anything unusual in the plenum jumping out at me, but I always leave the lid on when pulling my plenum. Its been awhile since I've seen the inside. Did you fill the tricky inner holes?

I remember seeing your car a few years ago in Rochester. An impressive ride to be sure.
