Redid my valve covers and had a spare intake manifold that I was going to polish, but had it powder coated to match (just to see how it will look :drool:). Now I don't whether to install the powder coated intake or the one that I have that is polished.

I will probably end up selling the one that I don't use.

Let me know you guys think.

That is the best looking intake and valve cover color combo I have seen yet.
 
I like the black on black personally.

Once you get the valve covers back in place just put one intake down, snap off a few pics, put the other down and do the same. Then you should be able to determine which you like more. If not, post 'em up and start a poll.
 
dibs on the flat black one if you don't use it!! That combo is SICK!!!

I may not use the black one because the Paxton kit is all polished not sure how it would look with the black intake.

Here are a few pics of the polished intake with the Paxton installed

That is a tough decision, do you have any current underhood pics to see what the difference would be?

EDIT: I see the thumbnails now that I opened my eyes.
 
That looks awesome!!!!! Both ways..... What are you going to do with the valve cover coming off?

You beat me to it, 2nd dibs then if you decide to sell the black manifold and covers. That black and red combo is sweet. :rock:
Question: the word supercharged on the covers is that a sticker or pressed into the cover.( how is that put on there?)

The valve covers will not be sold, they are going on my truck. I will be selling one of the intake manifolds just not sure which one yet.

The "supercharged" is powder coated on the valve. NOT A STICKER

Oh well the covers and manifold still look great, Thanks for the info.
 
I like the subtle mods. The things that look stock but things that someone who knows these trucks will see and appreciate. Too much "in your face" mods look out of place. I like the polished supercharger with the polished intake. The red valve covers add the contrast. With a silver truck I think the valve covers in silver with the red Viper and Supercharged would look great.
 
Honestly love the all polished look on the Silver exterior. It looks classy and professional show car type look. But valve cover IMO need to stay polished. As beautiful as the black setup is. Either all polished or all black, including SC like another said.
