Engine Bay Needs More Bling - Ideas Please!

[EdmontonSS]

Speaking of engine bling... I was thinking since I did my thermostat that I wanted to swap out the water neck to something more noticable. its down by the catch can and easily visible. But on Billet Technologies, they only list the water necks for the Challenger 5.7L and 6.1L Hemi's and nothing under the Ram trucks section. So will this one work in a 2011 1500 5.7L?

I am still trying to wrap my head around having a second battery on the passenger side... The idea is growing on me though. How about a second CAI?!?! Lol!

I still can't figure out what to do with the brake and power steering fluid holders. Paint them black?
I looked at a really nicely done enigne bay on another truck, it was perfect, EXCEPT for the two white tupperware-looking containers!!!

Someone HAS to be making some nice looking ones. Honestly i couldnt see any problem as to why it has to be that specific style so i bet if you could find a nice one for any vehicle it should work as long as you can mount it?

^^^ I am not sure about that.

But I ordered the Grand Cherokee fuse box cover from Billet Tech, and they swore it would not fit my Ram and they took it off my order. Lol!

I told them it was my responsibility to make it fit and that I wouldn't return it, so put it back on my damn order! I'll let you guys know if and how it fits when I get it.

Looks like on Moe's Performance, they list the same waternecks for 2002-2012 as well, so it should be a good fit. Im adding it to my cart of billet stuff to finish off my color scheme before I get my half-covers engraved and LED's sorted out.

Good to know, thanks!

I'm running the billet neck on my little truck, love it except you can't really see it.

The Vararam hides alot of stuff. I am gonna have to duck a little to see the TB cover I ordered. It would be pretty cool if the Vararam had a clear acrylic housing!

Could always do something like this every time you show your engine bay....

Works every time.

The lunchbox battery cover is insulation to protect it from engine bay heat, it probably wouldnt matter if you removed it lots of people do but if i was going to mess around with the batt location or even get two i would put them in the box.
I think its charonblk that has a crazy awesome dual batt setup in the box with 0 gauge wire and other electric things i forget now
Maybe now is the chance to get a super sound system to justify the dual batt setup

 

[hemihustlin]

Wow thats a helluva engine bay... How much did it cost? ;p
