Hey man, nice paint job, what kind of paint and clear did you use on it?? Did you pull the motor to paint the inside of the engine bay or cut it in?? also are you inner wheel wells on?? i can like see the concrete through some pics... Do you have any guess on what horsepower this brings??? thanks alot.. good job on the paint..
I painted the engine bay before I installed the engine. It's just plain ole silver can paint.
The fender liners are in the car now.
If I had to guess on HP, I would say somewhere around 320 to 350 at the wheels, but I have no idea because I have yet to race it or dyno it.

I bought the one in the pic from Summit racing. It cost an arm and a leg. A friend of mine wanted a smaller one for his car so we traded. They were the same as far as rows, but his fit the rad area better. So now the one I have fills up the whole rad spot.

with a better cam i think you would have a lot better times/hp especially with the auto
