    Most of it is billet. The supercharger I had done and the guy said he would never do another for the price he gave me

    The valve covers are painted black with a billet piece on the top ribs.

    Thanks for the compliments!

    I did.

    It's and LS1 TB. I know, old school since everyone else likes their N* but I'm just as happy with mine. I can pretty much do the same polishing stuff as Farnsworth. I've also picked up porting things on the side as well.

    I also use the LS1 tb. (as pictured up top). There's nothing wrong with them IMO. It worked then, it works now

    Indeed. Easy to modify, and you don't have to drill a hole in your spacer for your pcv port.

    Come on Reptile, I didn't know YOU got your hands doing the polishing.

    Under my home boys hood:




    All those I had a large part of.

    this just goes to show you CAN polish a turd.

    j/k

    The work all looks very nice. Kudos to those that do this because eventhough I don't like a dirty car, I hate cleaning it even more.

    ^EBay.

    Sellers name is: autodinamics
    His store: eBay My World - autodinamics

    These are billet aluminum, and there is many different top inserts you can get from him through his sales. I went with the carbon fiber insert. Shoot, for $15.99-$19.99 + shipping well worth it!

    These are labeled as LS1 caps, but will work 100% with out 3.8L valve covers. Tell him I sent ya, and your from the "Grand Prix Community" and he'll take care of you. I have boughten several through him.
