NICE! Tires are looking fresh-to-death and I really like how the chrome is offset by the red bolts. Did you paint them yourself or purchase them? Where does one buy these chrome dog bones etc.?

I am curious about the red bolt covers too. Where did you get them. The engine looks great.

I had them laying around from a new set of injectors..
They are caps from the injectors.. I cut them down to fit bolt heads..

Looking nice!
If I might offer a suggestion, instead of red covers on the bolt heads for the diagonal braces, get some stainless steel hardware. I swapped mine for stainless socket cap bolts (requires an allen key to remove).
Just an opinion. And I also wish you billet dog bones would have been in sooner, that would look AWESOME with those!!

I Just put the red caps on tonight because I couldn't find any of my stainless steel bolts, I'll have to check with my three Boy's ..
