Well I have been driving the MM again for the last few weeks. Everything is back together working great, no leaks, transmission is perfect, and I'm past the break in period.

Here are a few pics of the finished engine bay. I haven't hit it with any engine dress up yet but plan on giving the car the complete once over before the SSM picnic.

It looks very very very (yes thrice) clean. Too bad about the windage tray...
You need a timeslip on that puppy. Also how long have you had the Metco CA's?

I've got some Henious Arms coming...

Looks terrific. How do you like the filter sock? Is it worth the money?

Thanks for the compliments guys, the pics don't really do it justice so I am hoping at the picnic someone with a better camera will get some clearer photos.

Timeslip will be coming soon after I hit the dyno on Monday. Want to make sure everything is tuned in before I start thrashing it down the 1320.

I had the Metco CAs since the 1st MM. Transferred them over to the new ride because the set on there had the bushings all torn up from a improper install. Sold them to one of my local MM buddies for a good price and he got replacement bushings from Metco for free.

Still one of the best mods to the car in my opinion. Makes the rear end track 1000 times better and stay put when launching hard.

It came with the car so I didn't pay for it myself. I do notice it needs to be cleaned way more often than the filter itself and will actually start reducing the airflow if i let it go to long. The only reason it is actually on at the moment is when I was filling the wiper fluid reservoir I didn't want to splash any fluid on the filter. I was to lazy to take it off at the time, but will be pulling it off after I detail the engine bay.

Personally I wouldn't waste your money unless you plan on putting your filter some where it will see more water mist when it is raining.

I love the matching color work between your cam covers and the timming cover a nice Blue metalic came out great!

I'm still getting used to it Landy. It definitely engages a little different than the single disk did, and makes bit more noise but so far I like it. I'll give you a call tonight after work.
