Even with all the carbon fiber work in my engine bay I would have given you the award over mine. Very clean.

Tom, you are very modest to say the least. Let the Forum know that this engine compartment kicks AZZ. I have seen it in person and liked what I saw. I am not at all surprised @ this award. Wait till you get one @ an event with about 200 street rods. They will want to run you out of town on a rail! Good looking engine bay!
