  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    hi James, I sent you an email that I found everything for you, and now that I re read this post I answered my question of oil filler placement.
    I have two sets of these valve covers and two hood latch set ups.
    Let me know if you just want the one set of covers and one latch, or both of each and I can get the shipping figured for you.
    Thanks!

    Oh yes Chris I got the Both. My Postman was standing there holding both. He must've rang the bell with his nose!!:laugh:
    The valve covers and oil caps are in very good shape.
