I bought this thing a year ago and have done a ton of work to it mainly getting it running the best I could. I have also done a lot of work under the hood and in the looks department. Next step for me is to turbo it on 14psi with a b18b blocked bored to a 2.0 and stroked. Hopefully I will be done with that by tax time next year.

What I have done since I bought it
New intake
Converted to OBD-1 w/ phearable.net chipped p28
Full 2.5in exhaust, it's actually gone through 7 different kinda since I got it
Amber corners
Clear bumper lights
Coilovers
Adjustable upper control arms
Mini wire tuck
Repainted valve cover, spark plug cover
Steering wheel
Guages
16x7 Rota slips
Rear strut bar
New hood, fender, and front bumper
That's all I can think of right now that I have done to it since then

does wrapping spark plug wires like that have any effect in use?

Some people say they arc and eventually begin to wear down inside
I never had any problems with em but I unwrapped em the other day

The blue vacuum hose goes with my scheme

Eventually I will finish cuttin out the hood and air brush somethin on there

No, that would be my son

That stocker has been on there for a while and I have had no problems with it. The spark plug cover doesn't get that hot anyway.
