i can't believe you powder coated those valve covers.

looks sweet but i think you should color the other side of the power steering rack red.

You can still tell they are machined from a huge chunk of billet aluminum....if you turn them over I got the same reaction when people found out I painted the aluminum block and aluminum heads.

Yeah, I know the feeling Greg and good progress it is. The manifold is sweet. I also like the front end shots of the control arms. What computer are you going to use for fuel management?

Kevin Thompson from Hot Rod Solutions did all the manifold work. He is a great guy to deal with and I highly recommend him if you are wanting any custom work done a your manifold. Here is a link to his website.
