Well im really getting close to being finished with the engine bay. Just need to fab up one more panel for the CAI and bolt on a few billet pieces and shes done. Then I can concentrate on the gut, hopefully I will have the time before Carlisle. If not it will have to wait to the fall, cause work is really eating up alot of my free time and i really would like to start enjoying this thing this summer. Any way here are a few pics.

I think a piece of plexi-glass put in from behind the inner fender part between the fuze box and inner fender would look cleaner and show off how trick a setup it is.

DONT think I am knocking your work or outcome it is damn nice, just the panel kinda remends me of a fire exit with an access panel for a hose or something...I think the placement and way you have the fuze box is AWSOME and should be shown off more than coverd up.

It is SOOO SMMOOOOOTTTTHHHH though great job. I wish I had the time/welder/energy to do that to my bay.

Looks really good. Only thing I can suggest is painting the intake elbow to match the intake or polish it. Did you piece together that intake tube yourself? If you did what all did you use? I've been wanting to do that.

Thanks for the comps...

blksn955.0.... I was thinking about a glass cover for the fuse block, but decided to keep it behind closed doors cause it really is an ugly sight looking at an open fuse block.

SublimeRT... The elbow is coming back of to get powdercoated to match the intake. It was originally mirror black cause I was using a TFS intake that was also powdercoated mirror black. The CAI pipe is 4" stainless from a local speed shop.

There are still a few things left to put on and a few things I want to change. I will post more pics in a week or so when i finally button it all up.

Looks great!!

One question. Are you not going to run the plasic radiator shroud/cover? The part that says "MUSTANG" on it. I think that cleans up the look as well.

I am actually waiting on my UPR polished cover for the rad. Also have some other polished goodies to go on but I really havent had the time to get anything done, as work has consumed just about all of my time. (self employment blues ) Dont think the interior stuff will be done by carlisle, unless we get a week or two of rain so that I dont have to work. Then maybe i could finish everything. I just dont see it happening.
