They look great Lisa. Much like I have considered doing to mine. Rough estimate on cost?

Thanks for sharing. That is incredibly cool looking. Is that a shut off valve on your heater hose?

Hey thanks guys! I did this last Saturday. I actually went up to the Rockin S Performance shop to hang out with Rocky and at one point I was on the topside creeper while he was fetchin me tools. You ain't cool until you have Rocky Horn himself fetchin you tools!

I would call Clay (Riffraff) and have him quote you. Mine also included the intake side on the turbo housing.

lol. They're red, just not as bright and shiny as the tubes/spyder. actually when you're looking at the truck in natural light they have an orange hue to them.

It's a valve for flushing the coolant system.

Thank you. Finally got all my oil leaks accounted for too so maybe I can get the rest of the motor looking just as good.

Looks great, Lisa. I had all of my pipes removed last weekend when I was under the valve covers and I seriously considered doing the foil delete so I could paint my pipes and get things looking nicer under the hood. But then I remembered that my WW just about drives me crazy when towing as it is, so I probably shouldn't remove the little bit of sound insulation that is left.
