    1. Y-blocks

    I like them a lot. Not as good as good Thunder Brid 4 me, but there very cool!
     
  5. There is no "right" way on the direction of the fins. Anyway.... I will take a couple sets.
     
  6. Oh yeah, count me in on a set. Someday, 50 years from now, these'll be worth like a gazillion dollars to people "restoring" cars from "way back when"...
     
  7. These are awesome! On my list.

    We like to think of the y block as a little different so the way cool covers complete the different statement. We have just had a good buddy pattern maker cast a new 4bbl aircleaner cover and though this will do 2x2 also, perfect match.

    Awesome. Can't wait to see them available. Send a pair down under. We polished between the fins on our aircleaner ( see above post ) with one of those 3m strip discs , got lucky as the fins were the perfect width to begin to polish.

    Yeah, I'm thinking a set of these for my 292 would be just the ticket (polished with the raw in between the grooves looks incredible)!

  25. I like the fact they are so different. It seems like you always see the thunder bird covers and the big name versions.

    These look great! Excellent work. I'd love to see what they would look like with the insides of the fins painted black.
