Those valve covers and intake turned out nice. Valve covers should stand out pretty good when its all back together.

Sweet surprise. What paint did you use on the valve covers and intake?

i see where ford went with a dual blade setup. maybe to promote a vortex effect. however i think if you opened on the intake manifold throttle inlet and single blade throttle body would introduce a lot more air. for a boosted applications it creates a bottleneck. for instance look at cars with PD blowers IE: whipple and KB. the mouth is effing huge and creates less inlet restriction.

If I was only worried about big power then I would change out the throttle body but I'm just going simple...
i will add i like what you done so far.
Thanks

Well I decided to just go for it this weekend so I installed the pi cams into the car. Deff need a tune now the car pulls better now but down low has some pinging could be the tank of 87 but its a good excuse for a tune.
