    Believe it or not but those valve covers are polished with chromed screws as a surprised bonus! I was charged $40 for each cover plus $20 shipped back.
    It cost the dude $55 for each cover. So he lost $30 on me. And didn't ask for the difference. I'll send the remainder to him.


    Jason Farnsworth is well known for this on clubgp.com
    gr8racingfool@yahoo.com Contact him if you are serious about doing this stuff. He can do whatever you want.

          Not sure if they are cleared. I don't think so.

              wow...I don't even know how you can polish something like that for that price and not lose your rear in $$$


              Great work.

              The new Z06 exposes European sports cars for what they really are....overprice, underperforming snobs.

                Hope any clear coat that is used sticks to them covers, or doesn't flake off due to engine heat. You got one helluva deal that's for sure.

                    Clear laquer will stick to them and keep them looking nice.

                    I told you he was quoting on the cheap side. $120/set is what we charge.

                          oh I dont think the 3800 will give you any trouble. The early 3900's are doing a good job against them already.

                                Pshhht, I'm planning on giving stock LT1 f-bodies a run for their money, Corey's should be a nice combo.
