    Been playin' with the idea of marketing these cool 2 pc. Cast Alum. Valve Covers for the Mopar guys...it makes a SBC look like a Hemi !!! The Wires & Boots are faux of course, but otherwise they look pretty realistic.....Would be available with the Ball-Mill ( Grooved) look too !!!
    Let me know your thoughts !!:)

    I hear they are coming out with a map that makes every state look like its california so we can all be cool, and we'll just cover our chevy's with hemi parts, and paint all our wheels red and maybe even say bitchen a couple hundred extra times a day. Ha J/K,,,,:D

    Hell no. If you want the Hemi look, get a Hemi.

    Let's see, eight real plug wires plus eight fake ones, makes a fake
    looking 16 cylinder with fake valve covers. Fake too many times.
    These will sell to people with lots of money or plastic (fake of course) with no taste. Sorry but I believe that you are talking
    to wrong group.
     
  20. Definitely the wrong test market.

    Yeah... why not- they're a dime a dozen....
     
  22. Well no it's not just a flathead site,,,but the idea of billet aluminum will send some into a fit,,,

    The idea behind the hamb is pretty much 65 and earlier ,,granted there are times when later 60's show up but that is seldom.HRP
