Thanks Razor. I also hate all the plastic. Now to decide what color valve covers to pick. 67 models with 427 were orange. Red anodized might look good too.

The valve covers look great. Besides the valve covers, bolts, gaskets and valve cover inserts, what else is needed for the install. Do they sell a kit with everything or is it all pc meal?

Borla ATAK Mufflers

Anyone running these mufflers on a stock Z06?
Are they really louder than the stock exhaust with the mild to wild switch set to wild?
Any draw backs?
