That's a badass finish. I really dig them.

woooorlds different!!!

That crinkle will cover imperfections, too!

Just came home from being out and checked the covers, it cured even better and the wrinkles are nicer now. Ugh so pretty

nice dude! I went with a lightly-gloss ford blue and ever imperfection shows.

Not the greatest pic but hit the coolant crossover with a wire wheel and some high temp paint along with new o rings for both ends and the plug. Almost done with my imrc delete plates. Did them the right way this time with jb weld.

heads were picked up a couple of days ago. dropped them off to Matt yesterday. shop milled .007" of material to bring it to straight again and cleaned them.

all new felpro timing cover, front main seal, and valve cover gaskets along with castrol gtx oil and a motorcraft oil filter. and autolite 764 copper plugs.

Matt will be degreeing the cams to 114/114*

car should be noticeably quicker with nice good sealing headgaskets, slight compression bump from milled heads (doubt its much), and degreed cams. i cant wait

nice dude! How much $$$ are you into it?

atlanticblue98 · Jul 13, 2013

Very cheap Lol

Bout $400 in parts. And that's including machine work and all parts including oil and such. And let's just say Matt is helping me insanely. No shop could touch what he offered for labor. He's doing a huge favor to get my car back running.
