... not at the moment. At least yours is attached to a tranny and a car... ever try running with a car engine on your back? It kinda slows you down a bit.....

A hood like that would look so badass Aken. I looked at a clear hood for my car but once you took in the price of the hood and shipping from Japan. The hood would cost over $2500.

you missed a spot! j/p the best thing I have found is by hand. Water (sprayed from above) + engine electronics (can ony) = disaster Go to cosco and get some of the yellow "micro fiber" cloths. Don't use them on paint but they are AWSOME for getting dirt off, dashes, wheels, tires, etc) I just fill them with soapy water and wipe everything down. Get another and dry it off. Then get some black magic trim **** and squirt a little on a piece of the cloth (a dry one) and start wiping it down. Will look amazing when you finish. And yes it takes time. |

Using a do-it-yourself car wash for engine bay cleaning is not really a great idea (especially since you have that CAI on there). Check HERE for what I do with cleaning mine. Sorry for the link, it's just easier than re-typing or copy/pasting
.
Banned, good deal on the ZE... thats a good little motor :thumbsup: . I'll post up some L98 350 pics as well... (kinda crappy quality tho)

You can wash your engine with a do it yourself wash but remeber you need to cover up all your electrical stuff like alternator, fuse boxes and whatever other electrical stuff you can find. Also cover up your intake and anyother items that you know of that shouldn't get wet. Big suggestion let your car cool over night and then the next morning drive it to the closest do it yourself wash cause cooling you engine down by washing it after a long drive may crack your block and thats not good at all.

Used to do it every 3 months... |

5.7 liters does not always equal 350. The LS1 is a 346 not a 350.
