Looks great--thanks for posting.

Thanks for the compliments everyone... it means a lot to hear feedback from the CF - especially when the wife tries to be nice but doesn't really appreciate anything she sees under the hood!

All of the parts came from CF vendors/members and I would highly recommend them:

1. Chrome engine caps, booster cover, alternator cover, plenum cover, fuse box cover, (and future painted battery cover) are from Ed at Pipedreams

2. Surge tank cover is from Jim Vose at Southern Car Parts

3. CF member Gillvette shared his air intake shroud (with airbrushed C6 flags - very cool), filter boxes, and powdercoated FRCs (from Mike the Powdercoater).

4. Hoodliner artwork by Paula

We're lucky to have such great sources for parts on this Forum! Start moddin' everyone - we need to jumpstart the economy!

Very nice engine bay!

Paula,
I looked at your home page and you do some real beautiful work. I'll probably start working on my engine bay this winter.
