Thanks for all the great replys!!!
The caps came from Creative Engine Covers as well as all chrome stuff other than the intake. Its the Holley aluminum intake from JEGS and I sent it to Street and Performance to be polished and then chromed. The yellow parts are from Kewl inc. All great vendors to work with!

Some of my buddies have the same funny noise maker but they are in the shop too much for me. Im still trying to convince my wife that a NOS bottle isn't a bomb! Maybe soon.... but definitely more bling to come as soon as my wallet cools down a little.

Great looking engine bay and yellow is always cool looking. Now you have to add chrome wipers(looks great on yellow) and paint the black plastic under the wipers, yellow, to match the car; that will look awesome.
