What did you use for spark plug looms?
Replace the center bolt, bolt? (Or just thread it thru the loom?) i.e. How are they attatched?

Yes, they are looms from Summit that come with longer bolts. I screwed them down tight but the looms still moves a bit if you need to do some adjusting. Hopefully they will hold the covers tight enough to prevent leaks. Will see when I let it run after the o2 sensor goes in.

Very :cool:

The MR leaves alot of wires/hoses exposed and no matter how nice the intake and valve covers look, the overall look is messy. You did a great job of covering it up.

How did you mount the LT1 Covers?

I might have to do that. I like it.

Again, I will remind everyone that I am not a fabricator and this is going to sound goofy but I got some stainless hooks about 3" with 1/4 threads on the end. Hooked to vacuum inlet on the manifold. Used the Dremel to drill the hole on the cover. Cut off excess thread and used those nice bubble top nuts to tighten it down. Cut holes for AFPR , hoses etc... Here's the other side:
