Running headers ? you might want this
 
I made a few of these cover plates up as i am running headers with no heat and needed to stop dust and dirt from getting into the chassis . i have made more and flipped them onto ebay if anyone's interested .

Sometimes and simplest things are the best , I just wanted to make something that I never had to check and finished the engine bay nicely .

On eBay if anyone wants some

I got mine! Thanks. I still don't know how they got here from New Zealand so fast :D

At first I used spray paint caps held on with hose clamps, but it bugged me how cheap it looked. With the money I'm spending on this resto, $125 is like a gnat on an elephants ass. Why not finish this off with something that looks cool.

They say Americans are kind of wrapped up in their own little world for some reason (???) but based on it's size relative to Cuba, NZ is pretty tiny. Hope this helps.

Would you prefer to do the purchase on Ebay or a paypal sale within Pelican. If so, please send me a funding request.
Thx:D

Not dissin' either of your great countries. Just had to make NZ small somehow. The cheap box wine assisted my creativity.

Below are my thoughts on you, sir. Thank you, sincerely, for all of your help.
