Hmm.. I didn't know that about late model small
block valve covers... I should pay more attention when I'm looking around under
the hood of my Avalanche...
That's too bad Dennis. Just keep looking. I'm sure
you will find something you like.

Thanks Larry, my late model small block has valve cover bolts in the
center rather than the edge. Summit shows them for center bolt valve
covers but it would not look nearly as clean as yours.
Thanks,

Dennis,
If you do a search with just RNM- in the search
box, you will see them all. They come in polished, red or blue for all kinds
of applications.
To install, you just back out two of your valve
cover bolts, match up the holes and put the bolts back in.
It costs around $40.

Hi Larry,
Your big block does look great. Please tell
me about your plug wire guides. Do you know if there is something
similar for late model small blocks? Do they screw onto the side of
the head?
Thanks,

Jim,
Thanks for the kudos. The air cleaner is a
combination of a drop down base, a 14x2.5 inch K&N Filtercharger,
and the top is a K&N X-stream filter top that is supposed to add
500+ cfm of airflow. I had to go with this combination to overcome my
clearance issue in my 66 brought on by the use of the Edelbrock
Performer RPM Airgap intake.

Larry, That is beautiful. I will use
it as a guide for mine. Interesting air cleaner.
What is it??

Ditto. I also bought the MSD p/n 35379
for the big blocks which are 8.5mm spiral wound 50 ohm wires with
the bendable ends. They are red with gray boots.
As a sidenote about MSD as a company,
when I assembled my engine, I took it in to have it dyno'ed. In the
process, I lost my coil wire. Not being able to find a suitable
replacement at Summit, I called MSD. They sent one out at no charge.
Way to go MSD!
Here's a picture of my engine with the
wires.

I found that MSD Multi-angle ends
worked best with my BB and Hooker headers. They can each be
bent to fit their particular location.

I've been meaning to ask for a recomendation on wires as
well. I have a 69 396SS with Hooker Comp headers and I'm needing
to replace the plug wires. Any brands to avoid? 45 degree
boots? 135 degree boots?

I bought some of
the Taylor 8MM spiral wound wires. Just plain black, with the
45 degree boots. You can get them straight, or 90 degree also.
They appear stock, only giveaway is some white writing on
them.
