Default Sick Engine Bay!

This has to be the sickest Engine Bay that I've ever seen! The head reminds me of the creature from the movie Alien..

That looks awesome! He must run solid mounts or something. Doesn't look like there is much give in those rad hoses or turbo piping. Also, I think of Johnny-5 more than alien

Very clean. I can't imagine how much time went into re-routing all the harnesses & everything else.
