Now you have to do the intake manifold to match. Glad to see more people dumping the plastic covers.

Yeah I'm thinking of doing chrome on the plenum and then black on the runners for a cool two tone...also because I don't feel like sitting there acting like I'm jerking off my intake runners with sandpaper to get em smooth[8D]

This is about 5mins with 40grit. Just spend another 30mins with 40 grit and 200grit and it should be smooth enough for the powder coat

Haha will do chad!

Yeah sanding the plenum is no problem, it lends itself to power sanding since it's nice and flat as opposed to the circular runners.

Yes. You just have to remove the coilpacks and then the handful of 10mm bolts around and on the valve cover. Just replace the gasket when your done
