Outstanding!
Re: 22inch Ek
I totally agree with the less is more statement. Have you considered something like some pearl mixed into the grey? Leon's fc wagon (fccool) is a good example, straight white over blue with heaps of pearl, evokes factory two tone paint yet is custom enough to get your attention.

Mill the covers flat,remove the logo from the inlet manifold and paint the entire engine up in standard Holden red with a satin black painted plain air cleaner.
Pop some High Output 327 stickers on the rocker covers and your done.

Same goes for the engine. This is roughly what I want it to look like. Maybe no Chev emblems on the covers though.
Thanks for the comments & suggestions!
