After the TA was ripped apart and down for roughly a year, I finally got some pics of it all back together... She got a complete engine and transmission rebuild and a painted engine bay. Here's a few shots:

nice, i like the intake. you should polish that ac condensor. all you'll need is some high grit paper and aluminum polish.

Thanks Predator... I probably won't be down to OSW any time soon. Maybe a slim chance I'll make it down there by the end of the year if I rebuild the rear end in time.

Does anyone have any thoughts/comments on the painted engine bay??? This was my first attempt at painting. All in all I guess I'm happy with it, but I'm not sure I would do it myself if I had it to do again.-<i>Travis</i><br /><b>99 Trans Am, Pewter, A4</b> Forged, stalled, and cammed<br /><b>85 Buick Regal WH1 T-Type</b> It\'d be cool if it ran...<br /><b>94 Camaro 3.4, Teal, M5</b> The daily beater

Very nice, I bet you a clear lid would look great on that car. Its different cuase you dont have red, blue ect in there it just shinny and silver lol. It looks more expensive this way though, congrats.1999 Pontiac Trans Am M6 Far from stock.....

That is one mean looking engine. I'm very impressed.
The painted engine bay looks excellent. How many coats of clear coat are on there???-Kevin<br /><a href=\"http://heinz.no-ip.com/Car%20Pics/IM000117.JPG\" target=\"_blank\"><b>\'96 White Camaro RS M5</b></a> <br />GTP Shortblock - T3/T4 -6psi Intercooled<br />Open Downpipe

Thanks everyone. Not too sure about a clear lid, not really my taste. I try to make everything look like it belongs there. As if it could have come from the factory that way. For example, my roll bar is powdercoated the exact same color as the interior of the car and with no gloss. The idea was to make everything blend in. If you take a quick glance at the car, the roll bar actually gets lost in the rest of the interior, then you have to do a double-take to notice it's there. That color is also the same color that I painted the engine bay.
asdf1234: 4 coats of clear if I remember right.-<i>Travis</i><br /><b>99 Trans Am, Pewter, A4</b> Forged, stalled, and cammed<br /><b>85 Buick Regal WH1 T-Type</b> It\'d be cool if it ran...<br /><b>94 Camaro 3.4, Teal, M5</b> The daily beater

Here's some interior pics taken at The Fbody Gathtering in Atlanta 2004:
Here's a couple exterior shots from the track a few weeks ago. Night pics, so the light kinda sucks:

how did you install the harness? did you weld the taps into the floor?

It's a wrap-around style harness, wrapped around the crossbar of the roll bar.-<i>Travis</i><br /><b>99 Trans Am, Pewter, A4</b> Forged, stalled, and cammed<br /><b>85 Buick Regal WH1 T-Type</b> It\'d be cool if it ran...<br /><b>94 Camaro 3.4, Teal, M5</b> The daily beater
