I didn't weld mine up but I think it came out pretty well.






not done yet, but all the accessories are silver, while all brackets are black, I've painted the procharger bracket since these pics but haven't taken any pictures since, too busy working on getting it finished

This is from the corral as well, a guy named FastGT94. Definitely the cleanest and simplest engine bay I've seen in a while. Maybe it'll give you some ideas:

Take your time on it and keep the original shape of the inner fenders. It's gonna look so much better when it's done you're gonna be happy. Oh and you might always want to look into boxing in that frame rail. post up progress pics too. Everytime I look at my engine it makes me want to do this
