    My wife called and asked me 'what did you order now?' They had the name Chuck on them, but came from Scott Drake Enterprises California, so I was not certain.. She opened them up and said that's what it was. Then she said 'whoop-de-doo'. At least I was able to find SOMEBODY that would be excited with me. :bananaman :bananaman :bananaman

    I got them off ebay from Maverick Connection. I believe they were 169 + shipping. They are cast aluminum valve covers. I don't think Chuck Stalnaker has a website, but you can email him through the board if there aren't any on ebay right now.

    No, just kidding! :D

    Now that it's cool and you can do something outside after work, we no longer have the daylight! Daylight saving should be year-round!
