No flat black is not for everyone. I do think a wire tuck would clean up that bay a lot. Just my 2 cents

YEah, but I hate wiring and do not want to mess with it. Plus if anything goes wrong I want it to be easy to get to.

Lol, I wouldn't.

I got tomorrow off, so I'm flushing and replacing my coolant, fixing my exhaust leak, and fixing my EACV. Ugh...

<U>***UPDATE 10/20/06***</U>

I finished my nitrous install!

Fuel line spliced in:


Nitrous and Fuel supply lines ran to soldenoids:


Wrapped ntrous supply line in wire loom:


Single fogger mounted:



Again, wrapped in wire loom:


Mounted:



Arming switch:



I just gotta wire it all up and the kit itself is done.

Now, all the engine needs is some more fuel and safety features. I ordered a Cometic Headgasket and ARP Headstuds from Autoworks. Then I'll get the rest of the **** to go on, and she'll be ready to spray!

Gotta get my ARP's and Cometic HG in the mail 1st! Then order my Walbro 255, MSD window switch, and NGK plugs. Install all that ****, then retard the timing 3 degrees, then take it to the dyno and get my A/F straightened out. THEN take it to the track and spray it.

actually, the nitrous would act as a chemical intercooler.
a good tune and a block guard would be all that is needed really.
then again, its a SOHC. buy another one you rich ************!
