Figured I would give it a shot my brother is my welder and he is currently out in North Dakota for work. Don't know when he is coming back so I guess I have to learn. Your new camera takes some nice pictures.

Re: Here we go!!!

Did you do the bead roll fill in panel from the a/c portion or did you buy that sheet metal piece from a company. I'm digging the original look to it for when I shave mine.

The pcv is in the back of the plate. I also returned this valve cover,I was going to put the pcv in it but no baffles in the covers.
