    Big $$$ I would bet.
    Iso Rivolta, IIRC they used these on their 327's.
    Any shots of the inside?

    My grandparents were from Finland, so fins are in my blood.

  16. Yes this is off my ISO Rivolta #252
    The sump with trap door was removed for cleaning at this point.
    I was surprised to see so many fins on the inside, must have been one hell of a mold.

  24. My collection. The thing in the red package is an Eelco pedal cover, it's NOS.
    Bought the M/Ts at Timonium in the late 70's. Had to beg my dad for the $10 to buy them, vendor had a whole bin of 'em. Pop off plate came from the Carlisle vendor. The guy has a ton of what looks like freshly cast stuff like this.

    Last is the Holman - Moody scoop I rescued. Butchered bottom, had id repaired to fit my (gasp!) Chevy. It's in the classifieds now.
    Enloe has the market cornered on valve covers, so I'm not gonna post mine up!
