Post a 'Random' shot of your engine bay
I was thinking about this today while stripping wall paper.

We spend time to clean our vehical and show them off like prizes after we clean them.

Lets see those engine bays!

now the rules: you can intentionally get your engine dirty just for my thread.

no 'light' cleaning before the clicker. go out, pop your hood, take a pic, close the hood.

Id start but its POURING outside.... so lets see who gets the 'cleanest' and 'dirtiest' awards

Oh and post mileage too...

My 4.0 recently. About 185,000 miles. I just made that "heat shield" and after driving with an electronic temp. gauge It read about 80 whereas the rest of the engine bay was reading about 120....so is HAS to be helping somewhat!! Right?

Cant go take a pic right now so this will have to do.

Was taken a couple thousand miles ago but still looks the same. This is when I installed the roush air box.
