''The Roadster Shop: because nice is not enough''

Really, guys, you've blown my mind, again, I remember the first build I saw from you was C1-RS, you've raised the bar with every new build I've seen from you, congratulations.

Start of valve cover design. Also have the center intake cover installed. We didn't like the look of the stock GM intake with with the rest of the metal work around it, so we fabbed a cover out of aluminum that had a similar look only with a more uniform rib design.


Inner fenders were removed and perforated metal inserts were added to help get heat out of the engine compartment.

A few completed pics of the engine bay in bare metal. I'm still blown away by how cool this turned out.

How do you keep the hood open? Isn't it heavier to keep it up since you cutted the back of it?
