Yes the intake will be the same color its not paint its powder coated though in fact there wont be much if any of the engine that isnt powder coated except the block and heads. I really appreciate your considering to nominate me it will be much better I think when I get the engine bay finished and get the new engine in it.

I'm going to give you my honest opinion..
I like everything you're doing, except for the valve covers. I liked them better in black. But thats just my opinion and if you like em, then Kudo's my friend!

Thanks for your opinion. I kinda like them But then I like alot of things that I have done in the past and ended up changing it a few years later so I guess we will see how the test of time holds up or what it looks like when I get it together.

I havent posted anything in quite awhile. I been very busy and finally got back to working on the engine project and if all goes well should be painting tomorrow 4/25. I already know that everyone is going to say I should smooth out the bay but frankly im out of funds so it is going to have to be as it is. anyway here is the engine bay stripped down to nothing but what it was born with was alot of work sand blasting it all down and even more getting all the sand out of all the nooks and crannys.
I will be coating the entire bay with kbs rust seal prior to painting it. Its pretty much the same thing as por15 after that gets done the rest of the underbelly will also be getting the rust seal too.
