Here is a picture of my engine, I just finished installing a Crane cam, Comp 1.5 roller tip rockers, double roller timing chain and gears, 24# SVO injectors, AFPR and Hedman long tube headers.

Thanks for the compliments ! The engine has about 95,000 miles on it, as for how long it took, 4 friggin months!! Due mostly to the fact that I only had 1 day a week to work on it. The cam install and all the other stuff did not take that long but I cleaned or painted everything I could get my hands on. I also ported and polished the plenum, the polishing took some major time. That picture dont even due it justice, I had to keep resizing it to make it fit and it got kinda blurry. The fuel pump died 2 days after I got it going so I barely got to drive it
I just ordered the Walboro kit from racetronix so I should have it back on the road shortly.

That engine looks sweet!
I like the whole "satin" theme you have going in the engine bay. Looks really sharp!

I definately need some wire looms. I'm not sure wich ones I want though, so I just made sure the wires were up out of the way for now. Any suggestions on some good looking looms for centerbolts? Did the plenum and runners myself, and the headers were coated from Hedman. It may not last as long as Jet Hot but money started getting a little tight towards the end and they were only $289 for the headers with the ceramic coating. As for the exhaust, I just had a custom Y pipe made and hooked it to my existing Dynomax setup. The place that made the Y pipe did an excellent job and it was only $110 . Maybe I will post a couple of pictures in the exhaust boards (of the Y pipe) since I will be under the car this weekend doing my fuel pump.
