Default Under your hood

Okay guys here's the deal. My motorcycle got stolen 6 months ago and I've been without transportation since. So I just got my 97 z28 finally! I paid 3500 for it and I love it. The only thing I didn't like was under the hood. I had a 69-well it was my dads but he let me use it when I turned 18 years back. Anyway I'm used to seeing all of that shiny metal with the headers and the manifold and all that stuff... so I open the hood and none. This my dear friends needs to be addressed and promptly. So I need your help. Please... I mean please send me some pics of the sick modded to the max motors some of you have. Thank you.

Unfortunately for you the engine bay of a 4th Gen is much more crowded than that of a 1st gen, so it will never look quite as pretty. If you want to spend some money on dress up you can get you valve covers chromed (or go aftermarket, but they have to be LT1 Camaro specific to clear the alternator), put some headers on it, get a chrome intake elbow and a powder coated intake manifold (like the LT4, but make sure it's for an LT1 so it matches up with the heads). That's about all you can do to spice up the engine bay...
