What do you think of the endurashine finish? Is it easy to clean up? Is it worth the extra cost?
Please, please, please, lose that glass fuel filter. I wince every time I see one. I almost lost my Vette in a fire because of one.

The finish is very nice and for $100 more its the best $100 I've spent. I havn't had to clean it yet but I only had the car back a few days. The shop installed the filter I do have a chrome edelbrock I can put on. Thanks Jim

under hood
I justr did over myinterior and outside is real good but under the hood is nothing to show off. I would like some ideas of how to clean up and make the engine compartment and undercarriage presentable. I would like to keep mine pretty much stock. Is there a good place to get things re-chromed, or is it better to buy new? Mine is a all original 71 big block. thanks...

Bee Jay - The hat I have is from a '97 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I had to cut a little off of the spacer to shorten the whole thing. The flex tube is from an Alero, and the filter is a generic cone filter off of Ebay.

Got this far this week.
I have always wanted to use the Moroso valve covers and they fit good.
I got a new 4-core, 18 inch flex fan, aluminum water pump, and it won't go higher than 180 even while breaking in the cam for 30 mins at 2000 min rpm!

Daytona69---Hmmm.... you may be right, but it's hard to tell under all that chrome!
That's a nice color red too...too many choices, and too much $$$.
I need to stop looking at all these pictures.....
