Good aftermarket valve covers
From : cbhvac
Q: i wish i could have gotten a set of the mopars for the hemi for under $200 a side. oh well.. i just installed a flowmaster cat back exhaust and a set of edelbrock shorty headers today on my 97 dodge ram 1500. now i want to replace the factory valve covers to give my 5.9l a little style. i prefer aluminum and saw that summit sells the 1992-2000 mopar performance set for $183! a little spendy. i wonder why they charge so much for a valve cover set for these years does anyone have a recommendation for a good set of aluminum valve that dont cost much over $100 and still look good just in case i get desperate and decide on the mopar covers. are they a drop on installation with all the hose grommets and all like the original set i really like the black set saying mopar performance its the price i dont like. -- dan amborn damborn@guy.com .

great roy i guess youd be a pussy and beat up an old man too steve it goes like this ya fuck around ya lay around. i suppose you have an age limit when you dont defend yourself when somebody trys to give you a smack in the head. what is it anybody over 50 can use ya for a punching bag or is it 60 65 the gerbil wasnt beaten up he was shoved to the ground. ya have to get to reality here. to answer your question directly. nobody places a hand on me in a aggressive manner regardless of age. my response would be measured with regard to the circumstance. i dont check for age. .
