Looks nice! Are those Eickert oiler valve covers? The manifolds look like they were done with that bake-on exhaust finish- is that what you used?

Much better! A polished pulley kit on there would be the icing on the cake!

Yes they are Eickert 2 piece valve covers. Are you talking about the intake maifolds or exhaust with the bake on finish? Intake is the edelbrock permatex and the exhaust are Gil.

Hey There Tank,
Its killing me I'm ready to go now! Second motor will be ready in a few weeks. I'm almost done rigging the engine compartment. I'm taking my time and doing it right. Just need to paint the transom and drop in the motors next. I was planning new graphics as well but have already spent about 30k more than my original budget. Ouch!!!

I'm hoping to have it together before the Smoke on the Water run.

Rob...
