> [@dftsilvia](#): > > that engine bay looks like aids… Yeah. Not really that worried about it. PCM is going to get some sort of cover built for it. Wiring will get loomed. Air intake NEEDS to get moved. It’s going back up on jackstands this weekend. CEL is on for cam sensor - I think the slave is leaking - Oil is leaking from the oil cooler adapter above the oil filter Stuff to fix this winter… ---

can you bolt the air filter directly to the maf on a LS1 maf or is that going to mess up the readings? what about header wrap on that side to get temps down a little bit? ---

I have a few things I’m going to do to keep intake temps down. I have a set of thermoTec header blankets that I’m going to put on.
