Dear god, that is a nice looking 2.9. Great work! Every single 2.9 I've EVER seen has been a nasty oily shit covered mess.
 
I love the look and sound of a 2.9. I love my 4.0, don't get me wrong, but a 2.9 is just special. Great job

I like the look, that upper intake of a 2.9 is cool looking. As for sound, I prefer the roar of my 4.0 to the ticking of my old 2.9.

Check out multirangers build thread. That's a sweet looking 4.0.
 
way to pretty impressed

can you tell me what you used on your cast aluminum it almost looks anodised
