thanks... if you decide to go this route be sure to take the time to tape off the holes where the injectors go and the tops of where the bolts go that hold the intake and fuel rails down... you don't want paint buildup down in the injector holes because it could make the o-rings not want to fit... and you want to keep it off the tops of where the bolts go so that the paint doesn't chip off when you tighten the bolts down... I laid down quite a few coats to make sure it was nice and smooth and the same with the clear to really give it some depth... it isn't quite as good as a professional job would have been but it came out better than I expected and only cost me about $30 in materials and a few hours of my time
