Looks pretty good! With the black billet plenums and some other toys it should be nice...

Only thing I can think of is the OBS vs SD motors...

Looked at the motor I just pulled (which was a 97 van motor) and it had the smaller ones like this motor, but my factory motor in the shop had the larger ones like the new welded ones...

Must have been one of those running changes that is not well documented.

Looking good joe, I was going to paint mine cat yellow but I saw you did it so I didn't want to copy it, ended up going with hunter green and black to match the paint.

LOL... Its just a motor color. If it doesnt bother you, it doesnt bother me. I painted it yellow this time because it will be easy as hell to find oil leaks, and it was about the only color motor I have not had in the GBB... LOL

The yellow looks good. I had a 12v in a truck I painted CAT yellow.

What's that blue thing on the front cover? Looks like it has a Riffraff logo on it.

Thing looks good with that yellow! About the only thing I personally would do different is black valve covers.

Exactly. Im using silver for that very reason.

It does look pretty good though.
