    Out with the old in with the new

    I am in the process of changing out my valve covers from the black Lemans to the Blue Thunder. I sent the new valve covers to HPC Coatings and had them sprayed what do you think?

    I really like the Blue Thunder valve covers, we are going to build a new big block demo and I plan on using them. I will have mine polished like the ones we put on the black car with flames.

    Black car with flames

    Hi Alan:

    Talking about the black car with flames. Do you guys have any photos of the completed car? I would love to see it.

    Watch out Scott, the bling stuff gets addictive. Blue Thunder makes some really nice products.

    No Juan I don't, it left as soon as I finished it but it will be at homecoming. It turned out nice and Tom has added a few more touches of his own, it should draw lots of attention.

    I love aluminum valve covers. They just seal better. But I like the look of the Chrome pentroofs. Looks like a good alternative for me.
    Looks good Master
