Man that is a nice ride, but I have got to ask.  What do you have around your fresh air intake hose?

Your thinking of the ultra rare Y87.  People were getting blinded by the completely chromed body so they discontinued it after about 6.

haha no you're right. it's a total piece of crap on the intake right now.  I have some stuff ordered but I've been working on the interior mostly and after the motor went in I just haven't taken the time to totally clean up under the hood yet. It'll get there  ;D
