Looks great! I like the non leaking valve covers too. I've gotta do that mod. I ordered my dual Needswings and can't wait.

Looks great Howard. I hope to upgrade to a dual someday. Dang, that wish list is just a never ending thing. LOL Ok, now just use some CD2 and your black hoses will look like this :

CD2 is an engine detailer. It is the best thing I have ever used. It was around for years, then it got taken off the shelves for a few years. Trouble with one of the animal rights organizations or something like that. Anyway, you can find it again at most autozones. To get my engine bay to look like it does, I just spray simple green on it liberally, let sit for a couple of minutes, spray it off with water, let engine bay dry, spray CD2 over everything, Done. It really can't get any easier than that. The best thing is that it is silicone based so it does not dry oily, and will actually repel dust.

EDIT: For best results, after you spray the CD2 on, let sit with the hood up for about 30 minutes, and then go for a ride to get the engine to operating temps. This will set the CD2.

Any areas to avoid with the hose? Aside from the obvious, such as the computer box....

Use caution, but I just spray lightly around the computer box and the fuse box areas. I don't power blast anything, as the simple green loosens every thing up. So, it is just more like a light rinse.
