I like black wrinkle finish on the valve covers. Looks like a nice set up.

I am running pretty much the same setup but your heads are a lot better. Interested in seeing your results.

I used VHT Wrinkle Plus (autozone carries it). I just applied 3 heavy coats and then used a heat gun to produce the wrinkles.

Very nice parts list you have there. Hopefully you degree that cam in to squeeze all you can out of it. The paint job looks really nice so far.
