depends if you want to keep it oe if not i would go for alloy header tank, alloy swirl pot,alloy carb top chrome rocker cover with a ninja style oil cap, some samco hoses. take a look at this thread there is a very nice engine bay on there :)

Not fitted, but ive got a full set of black silicone samco water pipes in the loft. They look :cool:, to good to put on my car unless i give it a full restoration. :cry:

Wallace is just building a bay with Black hoses. He might have some pictures of it so far.

If I was going silicone again, i would defo go black.

Do like the blue though :)

I've still not had a chance to get any photos in day light, and once again i'm away this weekend.........

As soon as i can i'll get some pics up..............to be honest the china special black hoses are great in my opion:crap: - Compared to Samco and the like, its just the way they appear to be weaved round & round which gives them a cheap look.

Further evidence, you get what you pay for:agree:
