This is just me, but I'm not a huge fan of painting aluminum. I think chips and scratches stick out more on aluminum especially against a contrasting color like black.
Don't get me wrong. A black engine and transmission would still look sharp, and the pics of painted engines here are awesome. But I like the look of the natural aluminum better and it holds up better in the long run.
Take that for what it's worth which is nothing.

Getting at it. Most of the intake manifold side is complete. The transmission is just resting there to keep things steady as I need a clutch alignment tool to get things back together. Not sure why they didnt send one with the GMPP clutch kit. The only thing I am debating painting or PCing is the valve cover.....I would just do it black.

You don't need any of that for first start. I started mine with no air filter or anything.

Df gives you the hose you're wondering about and the hose you have folded up gets removed and you can use heater hose they provide or you can go down to advance and find something that works. I did the latter.

Ok, I have a couple questions.
PICTURE 1 - What is everyone doing with the following plugs? AC, Fan(there is a another not pictured), Lower MAP sensor....at least I am pretty sure that is what it was and the random plug I have.....cant find where that goes. Is everyone just cutting these out?
PICTURE 2 - Where does this ground go?
PICTURE 3 - I cant identify/remember where this vacuum line goes.

1) You can either cut out the A/C wiring or you can just tie it up somewhere. Don't cut out the MAP sensor. It will go in our throttle body tube. See link for #3.
2) I will post a pic.
3) That goes to your throttle body tube. Third picture down. http://dfkitcar.com/forum/index.php?threads/richs-track-goblin-09-ss-turbo-titled-registered.420/page-7#post-9932
