i never planned on doing all this to my GP lol but i keep going with it, and my GP wasnt in to great of shape when i got it. it needed alot of work and has come a long way. im probably gonna take a break on it once i finish my IC build and get back to working more on my 52 Ford

red led strips?

LED...

Light Emitting Diodes.

Depends. I liked mine black, but if I did it again, I'd probably do either silver, or white. I personally think that the valve covers should be painted the same color as the supercharger, unless the supercharger is polished.

So what you're saying is polish the supercharger and get aluminum valve covers? Who woulda thunk that'd look good?

fixed me sig!! and yeah i know how it goes eddie lol well i do have grey engine paint left over from the calipers and the s/c is unpainted right now so its kinda grey idk i think pontiac red would look kinda retro

Nah, screw aluminum valve covers. It's a GP, everything should just be spray painted.

im still polishing my GenV id buy ZZP's aluminum VC if they weren't so damn expensive

yeah they want an arm and a leg for those lol

They're under 200 for the pair on ebay... That's a fair price for welded aluminum pieces that size.

And I'm saying that with a lot of hate for ZZP. Most of their prices are sky high, but the valve covers are at a good price.

i guess that makes sense idk
