    When I have it closed everyone wants to see "What's in it ? "
     
  3. Exactly! Just like everything else on your car that nobody but you will ever see. And everything everybody else can see for that matter, you don't halfass it because you built it. You build it for you not the spectator's, photog's, the judges or anybody else in the peanut gallery. What zman said is true too. It's a lot easier to see where a leak is coming from if everything is nice and clean to begin with.

    As far as Im concerned, thats the answer to end all answers! Time for me to get back out in the garage!
     
  8. If it has an Allison V-12, fully polished, with 4-turbos, leave it OPEN.

    Otherwise, leave it closed.
     
  9. Wow! ... Who would have ever thought such a silly thread would go 6 pages (100 replies) and have over 1800 views? :eek:

    CLOSED. I agree with Pat Ganahl, who feels it breaks up the lines of the car.
