Post Your Carb'd Motor Pics
Id just like to see what kind of setup people are using in their 3rd Gen's. Plus it's always nice to see a carbureted motor in our cars. Ill start with one of mine.

Thanks f-crazy. I'm about to be doing some updating in my engine bay. It should look real nice pretty soon.

The valve covers are not hard to keep clean at all. All I ever do is wipe them down with a wet rag when I wash the car and they stay looking pretty good.

I got those valve covers last year from Scroggin Dickey and I paid I think $175 for them. I just bought another set for my new 406 from them and they are $200 now. Nothing to drilling the hole, the covers already have bosses in them for you to drill so its pretty easy.

Oh, I didn't know they all ready had bosses. In that case, I might have to pick a set up. I have the polished aluminum covers from GMPP and they suck!! They looked awesome when I took them out of the box and even when I put them on the engine and drove it around for a few days. But as soon as they got a little drop of water on them.....CRAP! They look like someone dragged them across the pavement now. I tried polishing, buffing, everything and the pits won't come out.

Botlfed, that thing looks nuts. I plan on turbocharging soon, and am wondering about headers. Did you fab those up or buy them somewhere? What all is involved in tubocharging a carb'd V8? Single turbo...
Here's mine as it sat last year...
