finally finished repainting my hood,,sanding it down and fixing all the small spots really made it smooth and look good

all the black mixes well with the color of the car, prob paint the grey on the wheels black this spring, i think a black vinyl top would look awesome on it also

Would you be willing to sell it? I really need one for my 70 Roadrunner 383 4 barrel.

Love that scoop! Id like to find one the same size and design but about 1/2 as high.. I keep thinking it would look good on my Ram.. Everyone says get the Super Bee ones but i like yours better.. Good work your doing for sure! How wide is that scoop if i can ask?

not to bad for my first time ever rebuilding a set of heads..i did everything myself from start to finish..it wasnt as bad as i thought it would be to do them..having access to all the tools and machines to do it makes it nice and helped me save some money, i spent about 40 bucks total on rebuilding the heads, fig ill use these till next year and then buy some nice aluminum heads
