A close look shows that the intake manifold got to dark. It was the first piece that was done and didn't have a base coat. I'll have it stripped and redone someday.
How do you like the Holley injection? Looks good.

Thanks. Here's a thread on my motor build.

Post #12 has my thoughts on the Holley system. In a nutshell I really like the system but I found the system training documentation to be severely lacking. I have a good running motor but I probably have a strong grasp on only 25% of the systems capabilities.
