Here are some recent photo's taken of The Mark by my photographer friends Tommy Lee Byrd and Andrew Walker. Tommy Lee is working on a "sleeper" book, and has chosen The Mark to be in it. He is also free lancing to various magazines, so keep an eye out for The Mark in your favorite car publication. :)

Thanks, Everyone! :) I drove The Mark from Atlanta, GA to Raleigh, NC and back this past weekend to attend my nephew's wedding. Had a great time, and The Mark made the trip without incident.

I received a email from Tommy Lee regarding the sleeper book, and it looks like it will hit the book stores next year.

Regretfully, it does not look good for me going to Carlisle this year. One of these years, I hope to make the pilgrimage :)

If you are not at least having eye surgery, then there is no excuse... :D

Congrats on the book! :D

Pardon my ignorance of forced induction, and excessive posts, (apparently you can't edit "quick replies", but what is that other giant chrome thing attached to the intake?
 
Thanks. I thought I would just point out everything the supercharger receives and sends air through to help describe, since all the shiny stuff has to do with the sc anyway.

For the record, nothing is powder coated or chromed on this motor, except for the flat black crinkle finish cam covers. All the shiny stuff is highly polished bare aluminum, with a ton of man hours in it to make it look the way it does. :)

The low pressure cold air intake is the polished tube that is connected to the 90 degree silicone elbow in the picture.

The other end of the silicone elbow is connected to the low pressure intake side of the Vortech supercharger.

You can't see the high pressure discharge tube in this picture that is connected to the compressor (supercharger), but it travels from the compressor to the bottom drivers side front of the car where the intercooler is located - it is also hidden, and is located in front of the radiator.

On the other side of the intercooler, another high pressure polished tube leads to the polished ACCUFAB throttle body and then to the cobra intake manifold from the passenger side of the car.

There are 2 blow-off valves welded into the tubes - 1 located on each side of the intercooler, to discharge boost (compressed air) when not needed.
