Why dont you get some spark plug looms like a LT1 uses and get some longer plug wires and route it around the valve covers and they wont be covered at all. Just a thought good luck

ive thought about that , just waiting to see what rick will end up doing when the turbos heat comes into play. i would really like to showcase the valve covers but the turbos take priority in the bling. after seeing magnuson's chrome powder coat. i may end up using that if it can withstand the heat. im also hoping to have a d-max with a trailer come years end so long trips with this thing will be a thing of the past.

also so i have to stop paying tow trucks. btw AAA premium kicks ***. 4x 100 miles tow's a year and a single 200 mile tow for 135 bucks aint bad.

Backfire broke the timing chain?? Wow...that doesn't sound good. I take it the springs couldn't close the exhaust valve fast enough and loaded the cam up real good to break that chain...?
Where's the sound clips?
