Here's my engine bay. Mods are in my sig. I powder coated the intake and valve cover silver. The close-ups are much more representative of the true color. The flash on the metallic made them look almost white in the other shots.

Tis an OBX, and I love it.

Whenever I get around to making a 2.5" exhaust I'm just going to cut the 2" collector off and weld on a 2.5", they make it 2" so it bolts to stock exhausts.

Here's mine. Nothing fancy and kinda rice. I melted the original mounts for the throttle cable (hence the coathanger) underneath the mounted starter shield is a Pacesetter header which I eventually wrapped with exhaust wrap. I would recommend doing it for anyone because the wrap really cuts down on the heat.

First the K&N typhoon:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v647/cooldudehalo/100_2697.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v647/cooldudehalo/100_2699.jpg

Then i found Spectre parts and added them to the Typhoon:

The valve cover baffle should not be hooked up to the intake. Cap the nipple at the intake and put a breather filter on the baffle.

With the way it is currently set up, the crankcase will get vented less as the throttle plate opens up more.

you will need to get a rubber grommet that fits inside both the filter and the holder so you can attach them.

You can get it powder coated or buy some high temp engine paint. I'm not sure if Lowes carries it. You can get it at Wal-mart or autozone, or O'reillys or any other auto parts store. Just make sure its the high temp engine paint, it'll say so on the can. Also make sure you clean your valve cover real well.

The valve cover is sweet man. Are you using 2.75" piping on the intake?

That blue intake sure sticks out haha, I kinda like it though

My Valve Cover is done though, so hopefully I can get the bay cleaned up and get a solid picture

I was just wondering why some people have that other throttle cable missing? Like in this picture (originally JimH's):

Yeah, in school I pretty much did. Even a failure can graduate 8)
And I truly didn't install the intake the first time. Those were your FR wires though :beer:
