Did you have to drill the holes in the valve covers for the breathers? If they are not baffeled what are you using for a breather and PVC valve? I wanted the same valve covers but was told the breathers would leak oil without the baffle.

Everything was pre drilled. Only thing I had to do was drill out the holes for the bolts bc of how tight the fit was. The baffle is in there. Only problem I did have was with the high performance heads I have it did hit the baffle. But I switched the two and they fit great now. But it was some hair pulling.

Blade,
The car is looking great!
Having one torn down that farand getting it back together in just a few years is outstanding. Iam green with envy over your firewall. Subframe has all the goodies too. Keep the pics coming!
