Under hood details
Hey guys, Interested in hearing where you get ideas for under hood details like bolts, clamps, finish panels... And where you can buy the stuff?
I spent some time crawling around the Belvedere Rad Rides built and I have included some pics below. Love to hear your thoughts.
The first is the subtle wire loom, second the plumbing of the overflow and the fender bolts that I believe are from Billet Specialties.

All you'll ever want to know about wire loom, and were most shops buy from to re-brand with their company name.
https://www.techflex.com/ download their catalog.
You can buy the popular loom like F-6 and others from Amazon, Grainger...

Those bolts and washers are made by rad rides and they sell them. Billet Specialties also sells them.

I will throw another question out - how about engine color? Factory colors are getting a bit boring, I have seen cars where the engine is body color all the way up to induction and some look great. Thoughts? What do you guys like or dislike?

Depending on the white, I like it. I was in Auckland last week, in Akaroa now.
