Almost there- Apparently that hose that runs over the blower, tends to rub...this after about 100k of that rubbing. Little black smudges are from dirty fingerprints, they're gone now..

And on the car, with the coil pack lid done as well.

lookes good, but to bad its going to heat soak worse than it already did now, casue that coating is going to make the blower soak the heat not letting it out now. but looks bitchen

Karlen89 05-16-2010 04:56 AM

I don't worry too much about heatsoak...it's a 100k mile stage 2 car. :lol:

I'm not sinking too much more into it...I don't want to have to build the motor.

Nick wants to do the valve cover in blue. :lol:

I haven't agreed to that just yet...I'm a K State fan, I can't have a red and blue motor. haha

1badBlueberrySC 05-16-2010 05:01 AM

Ah... boo I'm a KU fan... LOL

I did mine in black... with a laser blue coil pack cover and fusebox cover...

Are you guys serious???

That has been a modification on Higher HP LSJ's for a REALLY long time. REEEAAAAALLY long time.

LSJ's are bad about Crankcase Pressure under boost. Having that filter helps prevent things like the dipstick shooting out.

looks mean

How does it help?

I edited my above post with why people do it. It helps by allowing some of the excess Crankcase pressure to blow out the filter.

Mine's a Stage 2 car. But I beat the shit out of it. :twothumbs

You should have un-bolted the pulley. I see paint/overspray on the inside of it :( Other than that it looks good !!

I'm not a huge fan of putting coatings on the blower. It doesnt allow the heat to dissipate as quickly as a blower with out a coating.

I didn't have the puller for it, and I taped it up, but theres a couple spots I missed. :(

you'd see a breather instead of an oil cap

Replaces the cap. I do it to keep my motor alive.
