Thanks Russ, how well does the clear hold up to heat. I want to paint my engine and trans with base/clear the same as the body but I'm worried about the clear peeling or yellowing because of heat.

Re: Here we go!!!

I really like what you have going on the coil pack relocation. Very cool idea. Where did you get the spark plug wires? I guess it's a cut to length kit?
That will sure clean up the top of the valve covers.
Excellent work on the tranny paint/pinstriping. I love little details like this. Even if nobody ever sees them, you know they are there.
