Default New Motor (Pics)

I wanted to thank those who posted on my last few threads. You guys were very helpful in making sure I had everything I needed to rebuild the other motor I had. Wish I had some more pictures but hopefully this one will do for now. Looks and runs awesome!

Is that crinkle paint or a powder coat? I like the polished compressor housing.
Looks great man. Beats the heck out of the stock crossover you had when I saw it last. What internals did you use?

VHT Wrinkle Paint. Yea, if I would have known how much difference the intercooler and piping made i would have done it a long time ago.

geez, all that money into the engine, didn't you think about upgrading all your worm clamps to T-bolt clamps? you should also think about replacing the stock springy clamps on the radiator hose, I did that with all of mine and it looks much better. it also carries the benifit of being able to remove the clamp without removing the hose, which has come it handy in a few random situations that required it.

that being said, MORE PICTURES!!!
