Re: Project: ____________________________

That's what I've been doing the last 4-5yrs. Paint the long block gloss black, and VC, turbo comp housing, intercooler piping, and intake horn body color. Seems to set things off nice and it looks nice for a long while. Every conversion I used to do was either red or blue, and a few tan. man it was depressing to have a crappy looking engine in 6 months. And those weren't leakers. Haha

On the sound deadening, I used raptor liner sound depressing stuff on one build and it was pretty quiet. It had a 7.3 in it and was half the firewall space of a square. I was pretty impressed with how well it helped. I did the inside and outside of it. I would like to do that on my 76 too. We'll see how that goes. It's eating money like they all do. Haha
