I've always thought about painting the valve cover, so one of these days I'll do it. I plan to boost it to 20 psi so hopefully I'll get some good numbers

Sleeperish as all hell Stan. I'm interested in seeing what kind of power it's going to put down at those boost levels. Nice build buddy

Thanks Trance. I am also going to add some black mesh at the front to hide the intercooler and the pipes. I'm hoping to make some good numbers. If needs be, I'll turn up the boost even more ... maybe 25 psi
