Callaway made a similiar color called Candy Tangerine, although the OIL filter cover wouldn't be as cool with a Tangerine on it......My 87 Met Red also faded into a strange orangish color, especially in the sun. Car looks incredible......the Callway Tangerine is in the March 92 issue of Automobile. The issue also had a Lingenfelter with minor mods(458 HP) that ran a 4.1 (0-60), 12.3 QTR and 190MPH top end!!!!

CT Machining has done numerous other items for my car, but you guys are going to have to wait until BG to see the rest. If you think the oil filter cover is cool (which it is) the other items will BLOW YOU AWAY!

Somewhere around $30. From my understanding, Mike created the CAD drawings himself and then had the gaskets made. I just got the felt ones, but he has them in copper and aluminum as well. Note that I only purchased the plenum gaskets. I didn't need the ones for the injector housing.
