I just posted a picture of 17 of my valve covers I had taken to machine shop to be vatted, and bead blasted. I primed all but 4 with Rustoleum Hi Temp Engine Primer, and primed the last 4 with VHT Engine Primer which Auto Zone seems to carry now instead of the Rustoleum Engine Paints. I had never used VHT paint and it seemed to go on a really nice..maybe as good as the Rustoleum.
I've got about $7.50 invested in each valve cover at the machine shop not to mention my paint and time priming and think $40 each or $75 a pair is a great price and time saver for those of you that need a nice ready to paint set of valve covers.
I also have several cans of 1949 to 1976 Cadillac Blue engine paint by Color Rite that I had ordered through USA Parts when Bill HIrsch was out this past year, and would paint the cover for you for $10 each cover. The Color Rite paint is a tad darker blue than the Bill Hirsch blue. If you want painted with the Bill Hirsch Paint I would paint 2 coats for $20 each cover. I will wait 7 days to cure before I ship any painted covers.
If interested email me at jasonedge@nc.rr.com with ship to address.
Click Here for the to see them on my FB Parts Page. I have also inserted a picture below.
ps..I found about 10 more valve covers in another storage bin so have plenty more!
Here was the example painted with the Bill Hirsch Cadillac Blue Engine Paint:

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Who rebuilds original AC accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year , There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A What is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks
