I love engine compartment pics.
there is so much to see! I like picking out all the little details that make each one unique and then I steal the good ideas and use them on mine
here is mine today after wrapping up the install of a new manifold and headers. I went from a Edelbrock 2703 dual plane to a Weiand 7530 single plane and from 2.5 inch cast iron manifolds to Doug’s headers. The test drive is complete and so far I’m happy with the changes. The FI needs to relearn fueling but it’s running really well! It’s running a little cooler, sounds better but best of all it has lost all of the little stumble and deceleration issues I couldn’t seem to tune out of the FI. They were minor issues and most people wouldn’t have noticed but they annoyed me
