| Hey Guys, Putting my rebuilt engine back in and was wondering if anyone has dressed their engine bay up? I just have no ideas how to make it look newer/neater. There is just so much stuff in there. Post some pics up if you have. |

| I had this set up on my car but back to stock for now , anyhow here are some pictures of the 2 engines . One with blower is UZZ32 and other is UZZ31 . The 31 is sold now but it was just T/Covers and I always spray the engine bay with So-Easy , it is for tyres and works well on the rubber and plastics .Just spray it on and walk away .I have been using it for years and not found a problem with it .

| Looks like a combination of AN speedflow type connectors and braided lines (like the oil return line on your vortech Adam) and some supercheap ricer do-it-yerself over the top radiator covers..

| Hi Adam , I did all the braided lines myself , I use to run a 1400hp Blown 364ci methanol SB Chev with a 14.71 Hi-Helix Supercharger and had to have all braided lines so when i stopped racing I had a lot of spare lines and fittings . |

I had this done to mine, not supercharged, but you get the idea of what can be done. Red.. |
