Exactly my thoughts. Really a nece installation- but needs heat sheilding above the exhaust manifold.

The obvious issue is the lack of a heat shield between the injectors and the exhaust.  This can cause the fuel to boil. Beautiful installation other than this.

Here are a couple of pictures of Sam's engine installation.  These were taken last year at the Paducah round up.
