Nice, it's always much easier if you stay on top on the engine bay and don't let it get out of hand. I believe that vent hose for the driver valve cover goes under the other hoses in front of the throttle body

I was so expecting you to say "I washed my engine bay, and now I have a misfire and I can't figure out why." lol

Engine looks good! I need to get mine cleaned up. I shoulda done it while I was putting on the blower, but didn't really have time.

nice

i'm not detailing it until friday afternoon, it's springtime here in houston now, and it has turned my red car yellow so if i detail it, it will be covered in pollon in an hour

i'm leaving saturday morning for the Texas Mile, so i think a friday afternoon detail will be my best bet
