Default WooHoo! New Valve covers

I finally broke down and got a set of those GM aluminum valve covers, and hearing how porous they are I had vettedan powdercoat them for me. All I have to say is Dan is the Man! Once I get them back they'll get some glyptal on the inside. I can't wait to get my grubby paws on them. :jester
