Ok I see your point on the intakes. I don't know how the green thing got in the door but I wont be sporting any JD green. I was thinking about merc blue on the valve covers to match the pulleys and oil coolers or I will just put a good shine on them and call it a day.

Now on that John Deere thing, Pat we should probably get started on that before MTI beats us to it.

I told Pat to get you upgraded to the red 525s originally Brian.

We can paint the engines. We painted the 700SCis on Color of Money a few years back. They turned out great.

Colt blue with a horseshoe on each cover? Oh wait that would ensure them to implode! :-)

OUCH MAN! That third int was the death of us but if not for that this conversation would sound just a little different.

They're 572's so what do you think, about 5 lbs should just about guarantee drive failure. Remember boost is your friend.

Gotta love the power from the whipples, once you feel boost it is hard to not love it.
