Looks good. You need to modify the PCV system to help limit the cylinder pressue on the piston rings.

lol the altered atmosphere was from when we put a turbonetics single turbo kit on a friends 350z. we ordered the oil pan spacer kit from them. i live in central texas. nowhere even close to you.

No body said anything about the wire tuck or painted engine bay. Thats been the most time consuming thing. That and and waiting on parts

well if you scroll over and look, we hid a lot of the wires. like all the a/c wires (planned on having a/c) and the cruise control and moved the battery and painted the engine bay. we used three layers of high heat black and an *** load of clear. its been running a lot in the last two week and none of the paint has started to fade or chip.

it hasn't over heated yet, so the block guard must be working ok. it runs colder that stock.
