Re: Lets see those LSX engine bays!

Yeah, it's really nothing big, just a blurb in the latest "Reader Projects" issue, not like a feature or anything. (Actually, I was halfway hoping that that little logo wouldn't even be noticed...)

Re: Lets see those LSX engine bays!

I prefer the look without the fuel rail covers myself. Had to link this one in here this is so far the baddest third gen LS swap I've seen

Yeah that's pretty bad *** if I do say so.

Just for stock vs stock the rails look better imo.
