Billet Specialties Coil Covers

And looks like I am going to need to send the starter back as the case is cracked in half. Odd thing is that it still starts fine. It never made a noise and it was spaced perfectly, so I am not sure what went wrong.

A few more of the Billet Specialties valve/coil covers. The pictures really don't do them justice. They look incredible in person. Once the JBA stainless steel headers and heat sheaths are installed, the engine bay should really pop. Don't judge the wiring! I still have a good bit of organizing to do.

I borrowed a beat up original 63 console from another car and have decided to switch the car back to the original style instead of using the 64-67 console that was installed previously.

I ordered a Borla rear exhaust system for a C5 and as I suspected, it tucks up under the rear of the 63 perfectly!!!

The headers for a new generation Camaro fit perfectly in the engine bay. These are JBA units.

You've got it down to a beautiful science. :cool:

You're right, those coil covers look fantastic and right at home in the engine bay. Keep up the good work!

Finished decorating the LS3 by adding a carbon fiber intake cover.

Just one more great thing about the SRIII chassis...mike provides mounting points for hangers in 3 different locations.
