Default Custom data plate ideas

With nothing currently broken on my car, I clearly have too much free time on my hands. I am going to make a custom data plate with the CID, rear wheel HP and haven't decided on the third box. My car is a 74 so the stock one was too lame.

This is what I have so far. What do you guys think?

I think I like the second one best. How do you plan to do these? I need one for my slightly NOM 427 small block.

I ordered a blank one from Willcox and plan on taking it to a trophy shop for the engraving.

I am sure I will end up with 2 or 3 but part of me wants something a little different.

I talked to a trophy shop also about doing one for me. They said no problem to do it. BTW, 2nd one is my fav too. That's what I am doing with mine, except I dropped a 435hp/435 tq ZZ4. Hoping to build a new one soon.
