Ummmmmm....

For the record, I had Dave's assistance through my wire hiding experience.
Hell...According to my article in '5.0', he came down to Ontario, Canada to spend countless hours. LOL.
Thanks again, Dave.

Hey, what can I say

To get that grime off, try a flap wheel on a Dremel or a drill, or a soft bristle wire brush. It'll smooth that area down to the metal in no time flat.

AMEN.....Wish I did this with mine. However, time was the issue. I finished it to the best of my ability with the engine in....What a PITA!!!!! I plan on tackling the bay, after the summer with the engine out. Can't wait to see the result. I have a couple of mods planned at the same time. Nothing 'Go Fast'.
BTW....Aaron...Our bays all started at the same spot.

I hid the wires w/the engine still in the car; it wasn't hard. Welding and doing the body work with it still installed would have been a huge pain in the ass, back, neck and arms, though!

Where are you guys finding those upper and lower metal radiatior hoses? I checked ebay and such but I find very few and none that fit up with a supercharger.
