That baby RS49 is going to spool so freaking fast with that 2.3L... Hope you get that GT40 you want! It would fit a little better with that nice new motor! Wish mine looked that nice! Looks awesome!

Get a cover on that timing belt, shorten the radiator hose at the thermostat gooseneck to reduce the kinking, and make a heat shield for the exhaust.

I'd wrap it with some Exhaust wrap. I know DEI has a nice kit.
But then it takes away the bling  |

I agree. Even just by a clear timing cover. Looks sweet! |

With wrapping it he would want to have it ceramic coated so that the manifold doesn't rust out from under the heat wrap.

It's to mark around the carnage in case the surface isn't suitable for chalk. |

Am I the only one to notice the incredibly small stock size breater fittings off the valve cover going to huge, kinked lines to a catch can?
Other then that and what was mentioned, it looks well presented. How it performs is up to the driver and mechanic (you).
