I like it. Looks like you put some good thought into it to match the valve covers. I'm doing something very similar on my wife's '67, but more rounded like the early Nascar 427s. Cool build btw.

Its different, But not my cup of tea the copes are a little too deep, if the air cleaner was split in the center and the copes were shorter in height it would look a bit better in my eyes.

I saw yours too, I was half way into this one when I came across it. Looking good BTW!
Matt, Split which way, parallel to ground? Didnt want to put a shorter air cleaner element in, as it is a drop base and would contact the top of the carbs choke airhorn if it was shorter. We wanted it to look like some sort of nasty weapon like piece, and match the copes in the valve covers. I am not a huge fan of the fabricated valve cover, so this is what I came up with!? It will look different once coated, with the firewall flange machined out of aluminum. It is something different, I could not bring myself to put a round air cleaner on the car. Thanks for the compliments |

Thats cool, I was just wondering if you had an idea to make it better! Hope you can pull some sort of insperation from it.

214 - Wait until I get a good shot of it away from the wall with everything mocked up, then I think we will both like it even better!

Looks great! :thumbsup: Nice to see some "BIG" valvecovers in a sea of LS motors! Not knocking LS motors, you really can't beat them, just nice to see something different!
|
Thanks! They can't all be LS motors right? I just fired up a 502 that we put in a 67 Chevelle, and man you sometimes can't beat that sound!
