That is nice!
I love the chrome. Until now I had not heard of chrome powder coat. And I think it's nicer than the stock.
I might opt for that on my intake as well. Not sure. That might look a bit much.
Nice project. I keep thinking about supercharging. But I can hardly find a place to use my normally aspirated car. But it is cool. I'm very tempted. And that almost always leads to my weakness.

Here is an example of what using the Lab Metal with a little patience and elbow grease can do.
The photo below is the same powder coated cam cover before and after Jeannie spent a little time filling and sanding with the Lab metal. There are still a few flaws but this 85 Cam Cover was the extreme of a very bad original casting. The resulting difference was well worth the time spent to strip it, fill/sand and PC it again.
BTW, the photo does not really do the dramatic difference justice.

MAN!!! I almost didn't post this one since it's so close to being completely done but I wanted to show off the valve covers. The intake will cover them up some. I CAN'T WAIT TO DRIVE THIS BABY!!!!

There was also some maintainance issues like the inpulse sender, heater valve, fix coolant crossover leak, and windshield washer motor that we replaced while it was here. All of these numbers are irrelevant to the SC Kit install and I don't share peoples Invoicing, so Shawn will share those numbers if he cares to.
So the total cost for his SC kit was $6995 (normally would have been $6995 plus $1500 for us to do the install).

I spent some extra on having dave do some necessary fixes as well as some dress up items. With that pretty of a kit, it seemed a shame not to go the extra mile. Catch me at SITM, hand over a frosty, and I'll give you the bottom line.
