Hmm, I can't actually think of anything to say about it. I like the idea and the photo. Have you tried taking one from the front of the engine starting over the fan belt and looking over the heat shield saying "Corvette"

JoshKeefer,

What were you expecting viewers to think? It says Corvette (twice) and it has a large metal look to it, with the red, black and silver palette. But after that, the photo stopped talking to me. So there's something you saw that maybe didn't make it into the frame, and it might have made this more interesting. What do you like about it?

Are the jaggies on the "Corvette" lettering and the four lines (around the 5.7L) an artifact of compression, or is that how the valve covers actually look? (I have not seen the engine of a recent Corvette)
