Yeah, I love that black engine bay. My car is white (with blue racing stripes), and I get fed up with my chrome and polished pieces not popping out. I'd love to yank my engine some day and smooth and paint it black.

I thought the shroud was messed up, but it is an electric fan correct?

Yea, the support is messed up. It was hit in the front before I got it...its one of the things to replace on a long list of stuff....and yea, I have an electric fan. Oh, and those valve covers seem to be working good so far. I don't like the idea of no baffles either. Thanks for the compliments guys

finally some other people who hate the trick flow valve covers! I hate them, they are awful and very poorly designed. We should not have smoke coming out our hoods while driving around, its retarded. Every grommet I tried was never a nice enough fit so I made my own grommet and no smoke ever since.

All depends kinda on how your motor is setup. I have the short ones and I dont have oil coming out the breather but instead I have the pcv sucking oil into the intake spacer but its not getting burned so my intake spacer is soak with oil. Since I only have one breather it doesnt get enough air from that one I guess so it decides to suck **** from other areas never fails.
