78 Vette,
How do you like your Trick Flow heads?? I have a set installed with the rpm air gap as well but have yet to bust it all off yet. Anxious to see how it performs!

I will post some more pix as soon i figure out how to do it ( I forgot how :rolleyes:) Thanks for all the compliments. Oh ya The rims are 17x8 4 1/2 backspace they fit nice. Thanks again for all the compliments :cheers: .
