I saw another Stang at the Speed Shop the other day with the hood up, looked inside and the valve covers were painted the same color as the Stang. Looked really awesome. I may have mine done the same way.

Looks great! I also have all of the Scott Drake pieces, and will give you a tip, if I may. If you repaint your cam covers, remove the crappy plastic oil filler cap riser, and put the oil cap directly on the cam cover. It looks much cleaner, and locks on as it does to the riser. The riser only serves to make it unnecessary to use a funnel to fill the oil.

Rob,
Very nice work my friend. I like the Scott Drake caps, but I really like the BMR brace. Looks good, and fits well over the plenum cover!!

Super job, way to represent....

Take it easy,
Mike



Thanks Mike........

Looks very good!!! Nice and clean!! So, any plans for headers? If so, are you looking at any particular make? LT or Shorties?


Thanks man, actually havent even thought about headers yet, but i plan to eventually, which ones you like??
Headers is on my list after we do the 3.73 gear installation. Ive researched the Kooks and really, reallylike the engineering design of the chambers, HOWEVER, Im poor folk so I cant afford the price tag on the Kooks so it looks like it could be the BBK LTs Ceramic. Ive used BBK parts and have had no complaints so far.



Sounds like a plan to me....!!!!! Should be awesome

First off... I love your car dude!!! Great Tip. How hard is it to remove the covers & what type of paint did you use!!
