I like your engine compartment, including the info plaque. It contains a lot of information about the car. Adds a nice custom touch. Quite a few years back one of our enterprising C4 ZR-1 owners had a bunch of plaques made up to fit over the MAP sensor at the back of our LT5 engines. It only included a model year and a serial number, but it noted that MerCruiser built the engines which was otherwise nowhere on the car. Lots of our members ordered them. We even had one made up for the Black 1990 ZR-1 that resides in the Mercury Racing museum in fond Du Lac WI and presented it to them and installed it on a ZR-1 group trip there in 2014. But your plaque looks much more comprehensive, and the engine cover looks great. --Bob
