This is where I am in the process.

Still not done yet.... Injector pigtails will be hidden under the fuel rail. But that won't happen til I get home and fire the motor. 

 

 

And here is how I shaved my intake manifold, for those that care.

I have since added 3 vacuum fittings from when these last pictures were taken.

 

 

Still a work in progress though.

I get the "wire tuck" bit of this thread, but what is being "shaved" here?

Left shaved and powder coated, right stock.

 

'Shaving' is typically done to intake manifolds, but can apply to anything; valve covers, thermostat housings, even the engine bays sheet metal. Take a look at the VW crowd to see the most extreme examples.
