Great Job!! Love the look with the air cleaner on top. Nice color choice too.

I noticed that you have the heater hoses blocked off. I remember seeing something that LS engines did not like the heater lines capped off. (Someone correct me if I'm wrong) I think you had to loop them to solve the issue.

It was suggested to run a u-hose to solve. Like this: https://www.amazon.com/BLACKHORSE-RA...31773043&psc=1

I think this was where I read it:

Thanks for the write up!
