That looks nasty! What color are you going to paint he valve covers or do you already have new one?

 

awsome man

 

thanks guys, 78D200, im still not sure what i want to do with them, either chrome them, satin black, gloss black, or maybe paint them green but idk if that would be overkill

 

I wouldn't do black. Chrome would look good since you don't really have a lot of it on the motor. Green might be a little overkill but you have non on the motor.

When are you going to be dropping the motor into the car? That will be the time to decide. Take a picture of the motor in there with the intakes on and use a photoshop or even paint to see how it would look with different colors.

 

i thought it looked pretty cool with the chrome

 

Does someone like Chips Ahoy ? hahaha

 

the perfect shop snack is powdered donuts, the sugary goodness keeps the grease and grime from ever touching the precious donut...

 

haha, funny thing is they were for my friends that came over, dam moochers.

 

Are you sure you're not from Canada...lol

 

haha

 

Thats amazing progress man. Very nice.

 

motor and tranny bolted up ready to go, car should be home monday hopefully

 

Man, I cant wait till Monday...

 

 

are you gonna leave the crossram brushed aluminum or do something different with it?

 

no decision on the valve covers yet, they're at our chrome shop now getting stripped. depending how they come out i might just plate them while they're their, and the crossram is going to be polished

 

cant wait till tomorrow
this will look awsome

 

going to pick her up in about 20 minutes ill have pics later, woooo!

 

awsome

 

so, finally got it back from glass, came out great. hopefully motor is going in thursday

 

wow

 

That looks awesome man, you guys should be real proud, good job.

 

I have to go to the bathroom and check myself, I think I just came a little.

That car is looking amazing!

 

teasers

 

That oil pan is sitting kind of low. You going to raise the engine at all or are you not that worried about it?

 

As for valve covers, have you checked out the 440 source ones (I know there are other vendors that have these also)?

I think the natural aluminum would look good with the heads and intake or you could even go with their polished ones if that would match intake better.

 

thats not at ride height, ive got bigger rims and tires going on the front so it should come up at least and inch and half and ive checked out those valve covers and like them, there just to tall to fit under the intakes like every other cool valve cover

 

Do them the same green as the car. You have chrome headers, black vent(s), I'd do them green after all.

 

That's too bad the valve covers are too tall how about something like these? http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku They say they are stock height...

 

that is sure coming togehter nice, I am already anticipating some sweet burnout shots when it is done
