    73 Ford Thanks I drive it everyday. I pulled the engine last winter and did the engine bay (with alot of help from the forum). I've been to 6 shows this year and have won something 5 times, great year for the Mav. I had the cover chromed for $130, it took about 5 weeks because when I went to pick it up there was a mark that he didn't get out so he did it again. Alot of people notice that it's the right cover and not a repop. Thanks again Rick

    I've seen some that were done with the engine in that were perfect. They said it just was harder.It was alot easier to be able to stand in the bay and clean everything, and have the engine on a stand.
