Re: Shadow Machine Update
It's a shame you Jersey guys have to have a license plate on the front. That beat up thing looks kind of wrong on the front of that SVX.

Re: Shadow Machine Update
time for the winter slumber... I have removed my s/c and installed a gutted stock intake. I will be having the manifold, t/b adapter, and all other components powder coated over the winter.

Re: Shadow Machine Update
Hey Tom, I thik I've come up with a way to help you keep your "spider" covered in stock sheetmetal.
Cut along the recessed area of a hood, stopping at the end of the crease. Then, cut the part out that slopes down to the center. Take the two resulting pieces, swap them out. Then the slopes will be up, rather than down. You'll have the world's first "stock" cowl induction hood. It's guaranteed to match factory lines. This would be a lot of work, most of it tedious, but the results could be spectacular.
