Also some engine covers. I haven't really figured out what color scheme I'm going to use, but I'd like the covers, intake tube and possibly a radiator fill panel to be the same. I'd like to find somebody who can put some lettering on the covers - like P O N T I A C and then L S 3 underneath or something.

My paddle shift doesn't work. It's sending signal to the box that's wired into my Compushift but the transmission isn't responding...

I think he meant the engine coil covers.

These are what I was asking about. They look great. I am looking for a set that will work with my Kwik brackets and was planning on modifying some Corvette ones to read Chevelle instead but those would be great if they are not a one off piece.

A lot of people on here do not run them obviously but I do not want to mount the coils on my recently smoothed firewall so something there to hide the coils, fuel rails and wiring would clean up the swap.

also If you took any other pictures of your AFCO radiator with fan and shroud I would love to see a few more pictures and hear what you think of it so far.

My current radiator has the inlet on the drivers side as with most chevelle radiators and while I already have it plumbed it is very tight with my air cleaner tube as it runs to the drivers side win front of the wheel.

I have been looking at a new radiator that would clean up my fan and shroud system (currently set up with a modified 2000s F body set of fans) as well as giving me more room for the intake.
Afco Radiators are reasonably priced for good quality based on my past experiences but it seems that people want a massive premium for a radiator with a decent shroud.

Thanks
Frank

Covers are from these guys --> http://www.roto-fab.com/

They made up a bare set for me because they didn't offer any to clear my Kwik bracket A/C. I had to notch that out. Now I'm going to see about getting some lettering and powdercoating. Probably do the intake tube to match. Possibly something over the top of the radiator support - similar to the original fan guard that was there in that it would extend over the radiator.

I already got one of these too from Undercover Innovations, though I haven't put it on yet -->



Here's another view of the radiator -->



It cools adequately, but the fan is kind of loud.
