As it sits now. Still piecing all my coolant reroute parts and need to rewire for my COPs. FYI the PCV valve is gutted. Waiting for doing the coolant reroute to mod the valve cover for fittings. + I might look into figuring out what can get deleted from the intake side of the engine bay to clean things up a bit.

Are your PCV valve and vent just free-ballin there, hanging it all out? That seems kind of provocative, if you ask me.

yeah I have another valve cover being worked on that will do away with the pcv valve area and made the driver side vent bigger to attach to the exhaust.

You asked...? Now if you'd asked, "What's the advantage of the ***** pump intake over my '30 bucks filter'?" you'd have asked the question you intended to be answered.

And now, more engine bay shots please.
