My father and I finished the engine it’s far from factory and as I mentioned we were going to keep the truck and go with custom. My father was also a need for speed gear head so the inside is just as pretty and built to go fast.

That picture is before we switched to head studs. But now I feel if I do Ocher firewall that engine is gonna be an eye sore. Idk I can always repaint the water pump and get different valve covers to tone it down.

If I’m going to go a certain direction I want to do it right and I assume if I did paint the engine bay a satin black to complement the engine guys would ding me on it.

I have a tendency to overthink things and stress about details. I know most are doing ls swaps with factory paint so maybe it be just fine idk.
