Nice engine bay!
I am repainting all of mine right now & stripping the engine tins.
I just finished welding all the PO holes in that firewall and mounting my seat belt brackets.
Your SB brackets are HUGE!
What ignition are you running and why dont I see a distributor?
For an engine bay that nice, I would try my skills at a carbon fiber rain tray, custom built to fit exactly.

Credit Drew Rickert for the engine bay--I bought the car from him--it's a Raby Kit 2316 with SDS injection and ignition via coil packs, tangerine headers & evo muffler and it ROCKS! The sound is like nothing I've ever heard....I built it conservatively to 8.2:1 CR and it dyno's at 140 rwhp with 130-140 torque & a very flat torque curve from 3300-5800rpm. I've taken it to a couple of DE's at VIR and got another one on tap at Summit Point in August--I'm still in Green group and the car is much better than I am.
The SDS injection system was set up on MAP sensing when I got it and there were real issues with the ragged vacuum signal from those 4 big TB's so I switched it over to TP sensing and am super happy with the street driveability and track performance. SDS provides a closed loop option for the system that will automatically adjust to 14:1 AFR within whatever RPM and TP band you select. Then for track days, it's simply disabled and the system runs 12:1-13:1 throughout--plenty rich. Anybody on the fence about getting one of Jake's kits should jump on it quick--nothing but great support from him.
