SS rings that bite just enough to create a really good seal between the cylinders. Composite material for the rest of the gasket.

My eBay carbon lip spoiler was cracking so I sanded it down to bare and reepoxied it. Turned out pretty nice.

Kraken supplies their own inconel studs and nuts but I'll be switching to my stage 8 locking nuts that are on the FM mani.

Another shot of the bay. Painted the cam gears metallic gold high temp. Thought it went nicely with the red VC. I cleaned the throttle body and clear coated it. Cleaned all the timing covers and made them look new again. A clean engine bay makes me very happy.

Went into obsessive cleaning mode. The timing belt had this black scuff marks from just being used for 3 years, little bit of simple green and a microfiber makes it look new again.

93 octane. I never run more than 18psi on this map. Boost cut is set to 20.5psi on this map so the higher boost cells I don't ever reach on straight pump.

Radium rail with grams 750cc EV14, flowforce injector kit. Too bad the flattop hides most of this when it's installed on the car.

Got the pistons as clean as I could with wd-40 and scotch brite pads. Got 95% of the carbon off them. Cleaned the deck surface with brake cleaner and a microfiber, it's as smooth as you can get for being 2+ years since the block was installed.

Going to clean up the pistons tomorrow, the red color is from the mmt based octane booster I run. I'm not seeing any signs of detonation on the pistons which is nice to see.

Little shot of the head that was on the car, going to swap over the bp5a cam on to the new head. Running a radium rail which I love.
