Looks good. Now build a top for that cone filter and or put a rubber surround around the top so that it seals a little better when the hood is closed. The rubber surround like they have on the 850's and 70 series intake kits.

do you have any pics of what you are talking about....i dont know truely understand what your saying.........thx

Notice how there is like weather stripping around the top. It seals it off better when the hood is closed.

Notice in yours, yours doesn't have it. Unless it came with it and you just didn't put it on.

no it didnt come with it, i am planning on sealing it off with some reflectix (aluminum insulation)....something to better keep the heat out....never thought of that rubber idea....i will look into that.....thx alot

i am changing my set up a little andres. I am doing the reflectix around the side and then the rubber around the top... think that will be the best set up

Looks nice but the engine needs a little more dressing up. LOL

its a work in ....progress.......

where could i find the rubber around the top of the heat shield???

Maybe go to a HOME Depot or LOWES and buy some weather stripping some thick stuff possibly.

Also call EST or e-mail then and ask if they will send some from their other kits they sell.

Are you going to make it look something like this?

okay ill give those a try and keep yall updated on how it goes

hey tech, what can i do to "dress" up the engine more?......i am wanting to do a little more but dont know where to start?.....any tips would be greatly appreciated......

uh.....not really.....poor high school student here......just little bits......sway bar is coming soon but didnt know if there were any engine mods that i could do......

Half of that would just take time and Less than $100.00 to do.

Most of it is just Polishing.
Sand paper and Mothers Mag and aliminum polish.
Maybe a paint stripper as well.
Then some Long time doing it.

i could probably work on it this summer, i never really worried about cleaning the actual engine.......but i guess i could.....

You contact EST yet?

also with regards to cleaning the engine you can get a vacuum hose hit from stylin' motors. im in the process of installing mine and it looks great.

yea, they are going to send me leftover rubber stripping and i am going to purchase some aluminum insulation on top of that......they are sending it snail mail (usps) and it will be atleast a week

send pics when your finished
