Heo, The valve covers look great.  I'm curious where you sourced the birds, can you share that info?

I vote no gold. The birds really stand out on their own. Did I mention how awesome they look?

Yes Doug i think i skip the gold .... Yes i think you mentioned that :D
I'm glad the birds don't got lost in shipping and ended up on some truck or something ;)
I did this in the 80s sometime on some covers that had a square patch where i mounted
the bird. So there was polished aluminium between the bird and the gold paint.
But here where the flanges is right up to the bird i think no paint look better

Hate to tell you this Heo but your valve cover design is going to get stolen. :)
They look great.

Well Marc sounds like its time time for me to get a lawyer then and get TM, PM, and everythingM  ;D
Since I'm not fast i have to look good......If it don`t go.. hmm....Bird it :D
To be honest i saw that on a 427 with chromed valvecovers and a Bird sticker in the mid 70s and it
stuck to my memory
