Though? I rip aftermarket crap off to put the painted OEM valve covers on. I had a pro-street '70 Stepside with an LS-6 454 that I dressed-up (down?) to look like a stock 402. Had steelies with stock hubcaps,too! Many thought I was another fool who had built an all show & no go truck till I turned the key. Then they took a step back.
I do agree that 427 is real sharp looking (in the GM Performance dress). And I bet it delivers performance that owns up to it's good looks. I don't hate aftermarket dress-up stuff,I also do that sometimes. Just sayin, nothing wrong with a stock look (and fooling people with it is way cool). I know one thing,IMO dressing up a stock motor is pure lame. No offense intended,that's just my opinion. If I can only have one I'll take "go" over "show"
