pure awesomeness!!!

valley pan done. brand new mounting hardware used. painted copper because it will be fairly hidden by the intake and will just disappear if it left it aluminum. also, copper kicks ass.

This is really cool. So many details!
Also, that looks like the ark of the covenant or something hiding in there.

I was finally able to see the pictures! So when are you going to start selling these???

Me likey copper!!!!

well the intake mani seals i pulled from my actual car were almost in brand new shape even after 130k miles, so i decided to add them to the project.
i am now 99% done with the table. all i have left is to get a plaque with the technical deets on it. deciding between etched glass or laser engraved aluminum.
photoshoot to come...

Etched glass as in etched on the top itself?
wont that get ruined by spilled pop, pizza, juice boxes, those little white speckles on sno-caps and mess up doing lines of coke on the top?
I vote laser engraved plaque!
lol lines of coke.
glass would be etched (in reverse) on the bottom of the glass. leaning towards the plaque since its possible for the glass to be lost or broken.
getting quotes/feasibility from a few places, but if anyone has a source for this sort of thing i'm all ears.

ok so no update in a while for a number of reasons, but mainly i had to move this month so i didnt want to do final assembly only to tear it down and do it again.
here's a sneak preview of all the parts, should be together in a couple days.

lol, leadballs. apartment to apartment in the same building, so no agent. homeowner-ship? then I would have no monies for dumb stuff like engine tables.
