Here is my latest engine pictures tell me what you think about it. Im also going to add black Ford Racing valve covers, intake spacer, and polished coil cover. When i put on the intake spacer im going to polish the intake and paint the edelbrock letters red. Is there anything else i should do to make the car look like a show winner.

Black or crome Valve Covers would look good.

if your looking for more bling, UPR and Steeda have some polished pieces for the engine compartment e.g the radiator supports. You could also add a conical filter with a polished heat shield. Otherwise your engine bay looks good.

i used some edelbrach covers....some caster/cambers will set your ride off..they also have pollished wiper motor covers...you can use a dremmel and pollish your power steering pump housing.

The rusty bracket on the firewall just behind the intake manifold can be removed quite easily. Sand it down or wire wheel it, then give it a few coats of black spray paint. Makes it look a lot better. Also, that funky rusty piece of metal with spikes on it next to the passenger side hood hinge can be removed. I've never been able to figure out what it's there for anyways.
