My L67 swap story/thread... (lots of pics)

I'm going to sticky it for reference when others decide its time for a swap.

I really like the blue/silver theme in the engine bay.
When I did my engine bay originally, the car was white with blue stripes. Since then, I removed the stripes (like the clean white look better anyways)- so I've thought about cutting down on some of the blue under the hood too so its more of an accent color, rather than a main focus.
Also- thanks for the compliments from everybody else too!

Some more pics for your viewing pleasure...
Here are some pics after I got everything put away at the apartment:
Inside the 'coat closet'- basically was my garage/tool room and a place for part storage:
Once I got the engine back from the machine shop, I set it on the floor and did some quick trial fitting of the parts I had. Just wanted to get an idea of what it was all going to look like put together, so I could start thinking more about the color theme:
I don't know why, but I got a kick out of bolting on just the blower snout- it looks so funny on there with no blower behind it:
More pics of in process assembly through the build:
More pics from the swap itself:
Thats about all the good shots I have of her...
