It looks just awful. To save you from being ridiculed in public because of your total lack of decor in engines, just send it up to me and I'll dispose of it for you. I won't tell anyone who I got it from to save you future embarassment.

Make sure to package it carefully so the stacks don't get damaged in transit.....

Those stacks have the same mesmerizing effect as the Laker Girls. Well...almost.

Thanks guys.. I love it.. It sounds good, it is kick ass fast and when someone asks me to open hood I love the reaction.. this is the first time that the webers have run flawlessly since I have put them on. I think the KC cam upgrade really helped with that along with everyone's input here... Now if I could just make all the wiring dissappear..

The motor looks awsome.

Just for kicks, you mentioned that you put the webers back on, did you have a 4 bbl carb setup before?

If so, which one do you like better the 4 bbl or the webers?

Thats easy.. the webers... the car feels so much more alive than the 4 barrel did. Unfortunately the gas tank drains quicker too..
