Re: New valve covers for Christmas(PIC'S)

Very cool! My Chevy loving father in law bought me a set of Moroso polished aluminum covers for my SBC. They're sweet, guess he figured he'd spare me the agony of running yet another set of cheap chrome VCs since I spend all my money on the actual power parts :P

Re: New valve covers for Christmas(PIC'S)

Maybe one of these days I'll get my TPI up and running, lol! I keep chugging away at it, but never seem to get anywhere :P

Latest update on it has been the speed density upgrade, which I've been working on this weekend.

Few quick questions for you though:

1) How'd you install that fuel pressure gauge?

2) How'd you mount your MAP sensor?

3) You have any spare 350 memcals? LOL I can't find one anywhere!

Fuel pressure gauge screws onto the schaeder valve on the fuel log.Just take the cap off,remove schraeder valve and screw on gauge.I go the gauge from Jegs.

My Map is mounted to the firewall with a simple bracket I bent up and painted.

Re: New valve covers for Christmas(PIC'S)

Cool, got my MAP mounted today, made a similar bracket as your own

I know where that sharader valve is, but I'm wondering if it uses a typical 1/8" fitting, or what size I need to buy?

Thanks for your help I'm bound determined to get this thing running within the next 2 weeks, if not, she's getting a carb for now.

Standard Schaeder.
You use the same little tool to remove the Schaeder from the fuel log as you would use to remove the Schaeder from your tire.


The fuel gauge I used came with the gauge and plumbing needed to connect to the fuel log.
