ok,... first off,... they are not baby blue! Sun's going down .. bad light ( right NBC Shooter,.. c'mon man,.. back me up here! lol) The sway bar picture is actually shows the "right" color.
I went to the shop at 9:30 this morning .... and I finally left at 5:30! Folks,... this is not for the do-it-yourselfer, unless you have a lift at you disposal! Lemme tell ya, those valve covers didn't come off or go back on easily at all!
They had to drop the transmission cross-member and loosen the engine mounts so they could get enough tilt for the V/C's to clear.
The guys that work there do some damn fine work! Thank you Terry and Jimmy! ...at Performance Research in Duncanville,TX.
any way,... on with the pictures!!

Hey Petro, now all you need is to remove the silencer and paint the "stopper" blue,, Looks great
Looks awesome, congrats.

Thanks guys,...
I've found that using transmission fluid as coolant works pretty well!!! :up: just kidding! The dealership put this stuff in when the put in my stat.
The stopper will be painted soon, and I'm replacing the airbox, with a conical filter
BTW- Thanks for the referral Logan! and thanks Todd! for the valve covers! Hey Rumble,I'll have your valve covers this Saturday.

PM Marauderman...tell him you want to be "next".....the deal is everybody pays $50 + shipping (Tom saved on the shipping cause I handed them to him in Marauderville) but UPS/FedEx ground is like under $10 for 4-day service. Nobody makes any profit...$50 to you then the next guy (I recommend finding the next buyer before you purchase). Then, you get the ones shipped to you powdercoated, swap-out with your OEMs...and pass those on to the next guy/girl.
