    Thanks Mike, I checked out the Pace Performance site and I like them. Problem that I have is my ali. finned covers have to have a PCV valve to let the engine breath better. The after market covers I have also have a blank oblong area in the middle instead of the fins going right across the length of the cover. The other annoying thing is with my early Offy Tri Power manifold, I have a choice of three different oil filler openings.

    I think those vette covers are the one that most people will agree just look "right" on any sbc engine, be it a traditional rod or otherwise. I love em.

    What was the price back when they first came out, something like $ 17 a pair? Shoulda bought a bunch and stored them.

    they make pretty cool side breathers that a few guys here have added to their covers to avoid messing up the lines and look on top. Don has some I believe on Project 3K.
