Edit - I missed that you are running a whipple. I thought you were running an MP90. The whipple is more efficient then the Magnusson MP90.
Yep, Old set up was a Ported M90, just was not enough.

Yeah, the MP90 makes a ton of heat!

Scott, I have read numerous amount of posts on here from you, and you have been an inspiration to us all.. I just wish I had the space, time, and money to do the things like you! Thanks for all the tips, and mostly keeping all the SC owners updated on the project with pictures.. We LOVE pictures... and good luck with your build.

Way too much delay! I almost forgot that your project is still going on. LOL. Currently, I only care about your project and Ryan's project. Zach had sold the project to you, Bob sold his Twin T to someone else, and David's still in delay, so you two gotta turn on the heat and keep the 1UZ alive.

Actually got back to the project some yesterday! Hope to do more on it today.
Anyway, my COP covers are almost complete. The idea was to replace the dated plastic covers some Aluminum covers. Since the factory plastic won’t fit over the Tundra COP's anyway it was a perfect opportunity to make something cool. I am going for a serious business look under the hood so my plan all along has been to run open timing belts since I don’t have distributers to cover anymore. I decided to work a pulley guard into the creation as well. Here are some progress pics.
