New pics! PI intake and H&R SS at car show

[Black97GT]

Here is a before pic of my engine bay (extra dirty since the Npi intake cracked and coolant was exploding everywhere), and a couple of when everything was not in my engine and spread around the garage :nonono: Oh and I just hit 91,000 miles today :thumb:

Here is after

These are pics taken at a local car show, my brother (twinscrwed) and I both placed 2nd in our respective classes (me 94-98 him 99-04), 69Clark won best of show for mustang which was pretty awesome..unfortunately i wasn't thinking and forgot to take pics of all the cars even though I had my camera in my pocket the whole time.

Car looks great. What did you use to paint your pi intake?

 

[eliyarbrough]

[Black97GT]

Thanks, I used high temp engine paint for the intake manifold i think it came out pretty good, also did the plenum, alternator, and thermostat housing cap.

[Black97GT]

Thanks! yea im pretty happy with the way it sits. H&R SS with no front isos, i left the rears in to try get a little bit of a rake.

That is a beautiful stance. You've convinced me of what springs I'm going with now. O0

you need new motor mounts. your motor is leaning pretty badly to the passenger side.

I'm interested in the PI swap. How did the install go? Any problems? Do you buy one of those kits or did you just put all the parts together?

I only did the intake and that wasn't too bad, its definitely not a 1 hour job but if you have tools and some knowledge of cars you will do ok. I had a check engine light come on when i first started it, it turned out to be an easy fix of just some coolant that got into my spark plug holes so it caused a misfire. I cleaned those out and its been good since then :knock on wood:. I got the parts myself from different places, there are a lot of write-ups on how to do it, I would say the best thing to do is to actually talk to someone who has done it personally through a pm that way there is no confusion about what you need and you should be fine. Your knowledge of the motor will definitely increase if you decide to go ahead with it :thumb:. I definitely noticed a difference in power/the power band as well. Nothing insane, but noticeable.

Came out great and congrats on the award. My altenator has been looking pretty bad along with the EGR. I've been thinking about painting them to match my powder coated (silver) plenum and you definately showed me the way. Nice job on the intake swap and cleanup. One question for you, why did you leave off the STB?
