I don't like a motor that looks like I can't trust it so I painted my valve covers with new distributor cap, wires, plugs. I don't like the air cleaner, and I'm media blasting the stock one to put back on for more fresh air. I'm trying to get some heads and I already picked up a rear end with 3.73 gears, posi and disc brakes that I have to clean up and paint. I'll see if I can get some pics. The plug wires wire looms I made out of black wire ties. I replaced the bad looking yellow one on the left with another wire tie one.
