That would look good with a set of plexiglass valve covers!

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

I've read a lot about them too, some people say they flow like a Dart head at half the price. I cant remember, were yours the aluminum or cast iron?

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Mine are Aluminum and they are half the cost of Dart heads. With a cam lift up to 550 lift there should not be any difference between the heads. The thing I really like about them is there combustion chamber. It's a fast burn chamber Like the Vortec and requires very little timing. These heads Can support 500-550+ hp with a little work.

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

I have always been partial to these covers with the low spots painted in the color of the truck.

This is of course purely my taste lol

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Got some American Torque Trust II wheels for my truck 16x8 with 4" Back spacing..........The tires are to small........So now I need to figure out what larger size tire I can get away with, any suggestions or pics ????

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

It's not a 64-66, but on my 02 I run 255/70 & 265/70 on 16x8 on. I like the size and fit. What size do you have on the rim now (they do look tiny)? 285/70x16 are nice and meaty, but pretty tall & big for your truck.

Big and tall as you can get that fits. Then slam it.
