that's so ------- sexy.
just had a thought though...
How do you have the intercooler mounted?
I ask because those charge pipe clamps look completely ridgid.
Any engine is going to twist in the engine bay, but especially one that's making the power your aiming for.
That would cause a lot of stress on some of those parts like the plastic manifold.
IDK, maybe I'm missing something, but I thought I'd throw that out there.

Just got these -

Got my specialty tools to remove the crank bolt while on the car - pulled the timing cover and will mill it flat on sunday and then put the head back on (again).
Sigh.
Progress, though!
