Installed the new intake and started to polish the rad... now I want to polish the alternator, water pump and power steering bracket lol dang it! I hid the wires last winter (still need to weld up the holes and paint the bay)
I like it, simple yet effective. I'm not crazy about the blue, but it's done well. Good job on the wire hiding too. Simple and clean, That's what I'm going for, and iot looks great.
One Question: the MAF wire, how did you go about hiding them? Cut and splice the wire, made a big hole behind the strut tower, puilled the pins of the connectors?
thanks lol I want some nice polished valve covers to match the intake, the blue TB is only because I painted my old upper ford blue and didn't bother taking off the TB lol... I got a polished 65mm coming my way My engine block is black and I'd like to get one of those chrome oil pans (hell yeah I got the "make it shiny" bug now - and now that I have a reliable daily driver I have the time to do this). Also the EGR is going away, I blocked it off at the heads, I just didn't fab up an EGR delete plate yet. I'm also thinking about doing the heater hoses a little different than stock. Instead of the pipes running over the intake manifold, I'd like to put heater hoses going from the engine to the inner fender - like how I did it to my previous Mustang. It will hide the heater hoses a little.
As for the power steering, I'd like to get a manual rack - not sure about that one yet but I think I will start polishing the PS bracket since it looks like an easy piece to start with and I can trade it with a non polished and make some cash if I go with a flaming river manual rack kit.
thanks again guys, this car is now my full blown project (not a daily anymore). It should see some nice progress this summer - taking it off the road for a little bit.
