Lookin' good Grippy!

Looks like you'll be done just in time to swap that 122 for a tvs.

that likely won't happen considering what polishing everything is costing me , after the 122 I'm calling this project done, going back to the classics

with the blower sent out for polish I am considering putting on a set of these valve covers.



I'll have a test fit in about 2 weeks to see if there is room under the hood for them
thoughts?

Spoolin is putting a set of them on his truck. They are the nicest Gen 3 valve covers I've seen. They'll even personalize them for you. You could have a message inscribed for Brian
Ryan @ Abear is a great guy to deal with. They'll compliment everything else you've done to your truck Grip. Also you'll also need to get yourself some early truck coils to use with them.

Very Cool, I've exchanged a few PM's with Ryan about them, I wasn't aware I couldn't use my existing coils.....hmm.....I do have one other option, the carbon fiber valve covers you see over on LS1Tech (decision)

Since Richard mentioned Abear's work on my valve covers I thought I'd post them up in my engine thread so people can see them. Ryan was a great guy to deal with and I would have no hesitation to work with him again.
