Great looking engine. I'll post mine when I'm done with the new upper intake.

Thanks for the good words guys.  When I painted the new upper intake black and installed it, my brother didn't come out and say it, but I could tell he thought the aluminum-colored one I used to have on the engine looked better.  I was surprised he felt that way, because I think black intakes look good.

I think we all want to see your updated pics Vinnie.  :)
