Painted ls valve covers and intake manifold
I wanted to post some pictures of the engine pieces I had painted. I wanted to paint the engine components the correct Pontiac Blue metallic to keep the Pontiac vibe under the hood without going overboard. I did have the covers sprayed in two-tone with the grey that I had my frame, firewall, and inner fenders powdercoated. I like the way the grey and blue compliment each other. It's hard to see in the pictures, but there is a fine black detail line seperating the two colors on the covers. I have seen a few intakes painted, so I decided to go for it. The intake really pops. This is all just sitting on the junk longblock for pictures. I hope to have the LS7 finished in a few weeks, and will post the real pictures then. Hope you like it.
