Than not a foam filter, its a pre-filter. There is a regular filter behind that. The pre-filter keeps the chunks and bugs from getting into the filter and plugging it up too fast. The one I heard about (and actually saw go down in a blaze of glory) is the Edelbrock foam filter that is triangular.

just thought I would throw some of mine in here too...

Mudder · 12-16-2005, 02:36 PM

Mine will all be redone in about a month or so. It's all apart now waiting. It'll be a lot different I believe.

cdyblu · 12-16-2005, 02:58 PM

Here's a pic of my 572 cid big block

68Stepbed · 12-16-2005, 03:09 PM

Mine with the different valve covers.

Steelawork'n · 12-17-2005, 02:20 PM

68,

Are those original valve covers of a 283??

demi · 12-17-2005, 03:41 PM

How about another stock pic. Here's one of mine from a recent cruise night.

68Stepbed · 12-17-2005, 05:00 PM

Nopey, they're Billet Specialties with the old logo milled in them.

super72bb · 12-17-2005, 05:24 PM

Pretty much a stock look here. I hope this is useful. 1972 Shortfleet 402/Th400. Still in the making.

Heres mine not real pretty but it is a daily driver..

67Fleet · 12-26-2005, 06:38 PM

Finally got off my butt to snap a pic, but the motor's not done yet....

71Dragtruck · 12-26-2005, 09:24 PM

Here is a pic of my old motor, going to dyno and pick up my new one on the 28th. It will have alot more power and a more serious look.

Steelawork'n · 12-31-2005, 09:33 PM

Here is some pictures of my 71 super. It is almost done. I am waiting for my aluminum radiator and electric fans to show up. This is a 454 with a supercharger running 8lbs. of boost. I have also installed the new ABS brake unit that I saw on rucks when they were doing copperhead.

longhorn70gmc · 01-01-2006, 11:30 PM

Good reference pics in this post. I like it. I am amazed at how different engine bays look.
Thanks for the pics!

lngbed71 · 01-02-2006, 12:12 PM

Here's mine

*bskylerj* · 01-03-2006, 02:30 AM

where did you get the billet master cylinder?

I saw it on the show Trucks when Stacey David was putting one on Copper Head (the truck he was doing). Here is his site http://www.staceydavid.com/ you can get on thereand look at the copper head project. The web site is in there. It is a unit made by ABS and takes the place of the power booster and the master cylinder. It comes with an electric pump and is supposed to give you 2200lbs of braking pressure. Plus it looks sweet.

Bubba4spd · 01-15-2006, 03:49 AM

Wow Keh, what a nice looking engine bay! Does she run a quarter as nice as she looks?

Russell · 01-15-2006, 04:13 AM

How it looked for a little while anyways! Back in a billion peices again while I switch to speed density, lol

Probally wind up installing a set of stock manifolds too. These headers are too loud!

HeavyD · 01-15-2006, 05:26 AM

Too loud??

A lot of it has to do with the mufflers to, for sure, but headers always seem to tick, and my engine is built to make power between 800 - 4800 rpm, so they'll never really take advantage of the headers.
