Put my engine plate on yesterday that my friend made for me, think it looks pretty good. Tells the story on the LT4 for those who don't know.

Was wondering where to place the one I got from youse on my FELINA. That looks like a good spot. How did you attach it? Have NOT really looked at the plate you sent me.

I used two way black tape. Also since its aluminum put a slight bend in the center to fit better. Enjoy!

I might would use something a little more robust than black tape.

If the tape gets hot and the adhesive fails that little bit of metal could damage something on its way out. You could epoxy it possibly?

I used the two way tape, same stuff that GM uses to put emblems on plus valve cover glue to put the emblems on my coil covers and doing ok since May. I agree, dont want anything floating around in the engine compartment!

What am I missing, for those "who don't know" they can see from the outside on both sides of car and you have to open the hood and have them turn around to read what is outside and even if they have trouble reading, I wonder what they think that "big thing" on top of the engine is? Just having a good time. Best

lol....that big thing is actually pretty small in comparison to my 2014 Shelby GT500 blower. GM did a great job with the LT4, just needs a bit more in your face , my 2 cents. When my friend is showing off his Hellcat people just stare at the motor
