Nice update! I love that you all were able to get the tailpipes up and over the rear axle and suspension. Nice packaging...

THAT was one of the MAIN design criteria when we did the torque arm

Yes, it's the same charcoal gray metallic.

The level of builds coming out of Speedtech these days is impressive. Hope to see a few examples at LS FEST in Las Vegas this weekend.

Thanks for all the compliments fellas!

The engine bay is just about wrapped up, as the engine soon will be at race events too. We made the custom air intake that goes down to the air filter housing which is mounted down where it will pick up air from below the car. We also machined the coil caps with the same rough cut texture that's on the billet intake manifold. The larger tank on the right side is for the dry sump oil reservoir, while the one on the left is power steering.

The hexagon motif that's on the race seat is now throughout the car, including the hood and deck lid and the door panels.
