Re: Lets see them motor compartments
Dirty and no chrome anywhere... Might make some aluminum valve covers for it though, havent decided yet.
My toy, not big on flashy stuff. Got talked into chrome covers for this one by a friend. They leak like mad and dont have baffles in them. Annoying but they do clear the stud girdle.. 700hp Pontiac, even if it doesnt look it. |
