Yeah, I'm gonna do the same. But I do think I'm going to find a way to dress it up nicely in the future with maybe some real valve covers.

One thing car companies have definitely lost in the modern, all aluminum and high technology age is how to make an engine look right. Engine blocks used to come painted orange, red, blue, or black right from the factory, and cars like the Camaro had great looking valve covers right from the factory.

Now everything comes in plain, naked aluminum.
