Brodix valve covers

The bays are sprayed by a friend which does mobile paint services.

cost? hard to say, but it is labor intensive and not cheap.

Are those SBC Brodix heads that are adapted, or LT1 heads? I heard a rumor that Brodix was possibly going to make LT1 heads, but never heard anything more.

Looks amazing!

Just my $.02 but, now get an aluminum radiator cover. Get rid of that ugly stockered black thing, doesn't belong on a race car.
