repainted the engine compartment and thought id share some pics

 

one more

 

Looks good, whats up with the non-hooked up blower.

 

not finished with the install, need to complete installing the meth injection and mount the intercooler.

 

Wicked man, wicked...

Looks very nice. What car and motor?

 

What color is your car? Not sure if it's my screen, but that color looks very interesting.

 

thanks, its an 87 GTA the motor is a 385 stroker

 

its a custom color, its a mix of gunmetal and bronze and some black i believe. it looks different in every picture ive taken of it. sometimes it looks gray and sometimes it looks more bronze

 

That's a pretty bad *** color. I like it a lot! Does it look any different outdoors?

 

heres a pic with the old wheels

 

Very sharp, nice stance too. Those torque thrust actually look good for an over used wheel, but the new wheel you mocked up looks way better.

 

I love the look of your new wheels! MOAR PICS!!!!

 

heres another

 

Yeah that looks really nice!

 

what did you paint the engine bay with?

 

first i took everything apart, sandblasted any pieces i could and then sanded down the engine compartment, i then painted it all satin black and after that i taped off what i wanted and sprayed the wheel wells, core support, hood hinges, and nose filler panel with a light coat of line-x premium. ive used it on several cars weve built and the look is really nice when sprayed a certain way. you have to almost dust it on with the gun instead of pointing directly and spraying, the texture comes out fine not like what your used to seeing with spray on bedliner coatings. the downside is you end up wasting alot of it.Heres a couple close up pics

 

nice engine bay, and your painter does very nice work. nice choice on the colour

 

You have 2 air cleaners.

 

He does'nt have the blower hooked up yet, he has a K&N on the Stealth Ram and the other is to protect the blower untill he hooks up all the tubing

 

looks fabulous. I love the rims , color , super charged motor , etc.....
Makes me miss my Trans Am.

 

Beautiful car all around. Well done!

 

Very impressive

I usually get some from a source i really cant disclose.

I would imagine you can do the same with herculiner thats available at parts stores but i dont know how it holds up since ive never used it. I will be trying it out soon on the underside of a car we are building for a customer.
