I would like to give a shout out to another great moparts memember PS ARROW for giveing me a free set of valve covers. Which he did not have to do so this is for you john Bobby

Well i got the new to me valve covers on to day and no more oil leaks . But man i had to fit them to fit. the left side cover you had to run a short valve cover breather or it would hit the Mc. the right side was the worst. I almost thought i was not going to be able to use them. Because number 2 exhaust tube was hitting the side of the valve cover and not letting the valve cover holes line up. So i had to bend the number 2 exhaust pipe out over a inch.I am using tti headers. I also finale put my tunnel ram on to day. Well my car might not be very fast but at least it looks fast. also got my new hood/scoop on also. I do not think it looks as good as my hemi hood scoop did. but it will have to do because of my tunnel ram. Here are some picks of the valve covers, intake, hood please let me know what you think.thanks Mopar65

1970 Duster
Edelbrock headed 408
5.984@112.52
422 Indy headed small block
5.982@112.56 mph

Livin and lovin life one day at a time

Sounds like you had a tuff time getting those covers on but they look good now. Noticed in the first picture a couple of things , maybe just the angle but the spark plug wire looks pretty close or on the hedder tube,also the fuel regulator and lines should be ran away from the heat of the hedder tubes to avoid vapor lock.



it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

I went and looked at they plug wire you was talking about and it is fine. must just be the way i had camera angled at. can you show me how you have your fuel reg mounted? There is not a lot of room up front to mount one and i tried mounting it as close to the carbs as i could.but thanks for the pointers Mopar65
