But now...are u going to have any hood clearance issues, because I know the St220 manifold sits higher and the LIM sits lower.
I have had the pleasure of actually holding and finger banging an st220 manifold.

The St220 LIM is the same height as the plastic LIM when I checked

My hood vibrates on the Oil Fill Cap on the front valve cover. I have a 99 cougar, but you may run into the same issue. Im using the 3.0 front valve cover temporarily, so I'm not concerned about it. It is really annoying though.
Looks good btw. Did you paint the UIM, polished, or just stock?

why the long face? The serp belt isn't necessary to just start it up for a sec to hear it run. No major items driven off the belt anyway.
I'll put holes in him!!
