:whs
good nice to know it's not just me, personally I hate "trailer treasures" where the heat marks are pollished out of the shiney stainless steel exhausts every time the engine is run, it is just wrong!
Now Ramon's, Tony's Ian's, Ian's, Devonman's the list goes on, these engine bays are great, clean, funtional, tidy and they have engines in them that run in real cars.
Sorry I'll take my soap box away now! :lol: :lol:
Best regards

A lot of inginuity going on in that install, the inlet manifold is a great effort, and it's a wonderfully compact installation of a roots blower but I cried when I saw that hoodscoop on an MG :(

Well, if the guys hobby is making nice engine parts, then time is immaterial.

He could have thrown a normal Ebay type ex-mini blower on a stock manifold, with an adaptor mig blobbed on, but then his car would have looked like a hundred others.
