    Bling!

    Check out page 258 in the Speedway catalog.....finned aluminum spin-on filter cover....$19.99. Works great on my remote filter mount, matches the Wayne valve cover, slides over the filter and locks down with a pinch clamp and allen head machine screw. I was amazed at the quality of the casting and the polished finish for that kind of jingle.

    As for improving performance.......wow.......feels like 30% HP increase, muffler bearings are much quieter, and I think my mileage has increased by at least 41%.

    Street racing, eh? Question is! Can you operate a clutch yet? Do I need to come out to LaLa land and drive your truck so it doesn't get carboned up?;)

    That's it Bill!!! I'm sure it's an Off-shore repop but for that kind of coin I bit, and with my relocated filter mount up on the fireway, it adds that "finishing touch." I was expecting something a bit "cheesy" but somebody screwed up and offered a product that was better than expected.
