LS7 Update: Carbon fiber valve covers and front accessory drive
 

Here's the latest update to the project and a little eye candy... I installed the valve covers from Carbon Fiber Valve Covers.com and the new front accessory drive from Synister Products.

The carbon valve covers not only look incredible, but the engineering behind them is first rate. I was impressed when I put the O-ring seal in the channel in the covers. They fit like they were a factory piece.

The front accessory drive is annodized black and is damn trick. I haven't pressed on the balancer hub yet, but you get the idea. The T-stat housing is billet and annodized black.

I'm pretty stoked how it all came out, but I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.

P.S where did you get those hoses from?

The dry sump hoses are -12 Earl's Pro-Lite.

Thanks Scott:thumbsup:

Pretty...

Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhh Booooyyy!!!!! very cool!:thumbsup:

Wait a minute...What happened to the custom intake from here: https://lateral-g.net/forums/show...t=7736&page=14

That's not Scott's car...

Looks AWESOME!!! :thumbsup:

whoops!

Very nice Scott. Does that drive system have AC available?

As Tony pointed out, that's the Red Witch. It also has the bitchin carbon fiber valve covers. :thumbsup:

Thanks Jay. Yep, AC is definitely an option, but I didn't want it in my car. :)

Awesome Scott! Like those black hoses. :cool:

Looking good my friend!
 

I like the way that motor is coming together....and like you said, the covers and acc drive are bad ass.

I'm really close to firing it up. Just waiting for a few more parts. :)

That is Red Witch, not Scott's car

Mike

Sweeet!

Whatcha gonna do for a breather system with those covers?

I have the same without breathers in the covers. I'm going out of the block-off plate under the intake manifold and running black braided lines to remote breathers hidden in the fenderwells.

Jody

Very, very nice. Getting closer!!

That looks SICK Scott, I can't wait to see your car done... :hail:

WOW!!! Those valve covers just do it for me.....

:wow:

I may need a moment alone with those when we finally get a set on a car :willy:
