Re: His name is "George" 84' C10
Happy NEW Year! Started my new year off by re-engineering Edelbrock's SBC valve cover adaptor. With their set up, the coils are bunched together and the plug wires are bent really tight. Also there is nowhere for an oil fill. Started by cutting off the OEM fill and laying out how I wanted everything positioned. I originally tried to weld the ring on, but I ended up warping it with the heat ( Still learning TIG! ). Ended up using a high heat style of JB weld. Made a plate to mount the coils, which will allow me to use Edelbrock's mounting positions and add space to tuck the wiring harness in. Aluminum was from an old sign, so it looked like "Forged in Fire" when I melted the reflective coating off. With everything mocked up, the valve covers still fit!
