I don't have pics yet but my next set are going to be the chrome plated "Pentroof" covers that Tony Branda sells.They are repos that are shaped just like the cobra ones pictured above but shinier.I've got them on the shelf to go on when the new intake goes on.And to sweeten the purchase they list for $150.00 on the website but when they got here they were on special for $110.00.That was a nice surprise.

You mean these ones??

DOes anyone have a good place with decent pricing to get some shiny accesories for my 390?

Best looking valve covers ever built. Period.


td, very nice job on your 302. Looks very nice!

Somebody with the ID jreb333 posted a pic of a dash on this forum. Want more details on that.

I'd put the pic here if I had the sense God gave a goat, but its on the gallery forum, and appears to be a complete custom job on an old solid steel faced gauge cluster.
