    Hey Shift Wizard,
    I think the guy you are looking for goes by Richies-nostalgic-auto-parts on feebay.

    I may be wrong but that looks like his work.

    I had seen those angled finned covers on there and when I walked past his booth at the Portland swap meet they were unmistakable. I talked with him for a while, he was a good guy and makes some cool stuff.

    ...robber...i have to say, that is super clean, and wicked display of cubic inches! Very impressive, accurate bending on the fuel lines!

    That looks great! What intake is that? What distributor are you running?

    Your alternator bracket looks pretty neat, too.

    Edelbrock PERFORMER EPS, MALLORY UNILITE DISTRIBUTOR. Thanks for the kind words. P.S. That is an orig. Caddy. filter not a re-pop.

    It's fairly similar to what I'm planning for my 283 I'll be putting in a 28 RPU. My heads are early and don't have accessory holes, but I'll be mounting my alternator low instead.

    I'm planning on using a 4bbl and wasn't sure if it would look just right, but seeing yours definitely convinced me!

    That Caddy air cleaner looks terrific!
