I'm tired of all your clean engine bays!

Feast your eyes on this beauty!

Here's the bay before I pulled the engine out again a few weeks ago.

What oil filter relocating kit did you use; or did you build it yourself?
Looks great!

Been almost a year since I threw a picture out here... it's nearing the end of 'Construction' and should be running soon:

Still need to mount oil filter relocate/cooler, move battery, get exhaust stuff coated, mount BOV and get pipe for air cleaner side of the turbo.

I was busy fighting the rust demons...

ps-what's a screamer pipe? I saw a few on here but don't know what they do?

I decided to paint a few parts to clean up my engine bay until I pull it and really scrub everything. Looks better for now.

Before.

After.

I'm having a problem with the rubber seal on the hood making the intercooler cover all dirty. I've tried cleaning it really well and it still marks it up. :|

On another note, I just noticed me and my car were made in the same month and year, 12/89. Ain't that something.
