    Maybe just paint your old valve covers to match the exterior.

    That dual quad setup will look great.

    You saw the picture of the dual quad setup I went with. Here are the valve covers and air cleaner that I purchased. Hope they work and look like I want. Larry

    Now here is another question. I am attaching a picture of my brake cylinder and booster. Since I want to get a chrome one, do you think something like this will work? http://www.ebay.com/itm/7-Dual-Diaph...ht_3350wt_1127

    Larry - The only thing I get nervous about with these aftermarket parts in crucial areas is that if they fail, can you put normal parts-store parts on them to get you home.

    This seems to say it uses standard GM specs, so assuming the bore is the same as what you have now, then it should be a simple swap. Otherwise you may need to adjust things to match the new parts - but you have adjustable proportioning valve, so you're probably good to go.

    Thanks for the help Roger, don't know what we would do without your great feedback. I am dismantling the car today, taking off the carb, intake, and then the brake booster. I will measure all the mounting locations on the booster to make sure the new setup will fit.

    I will post some pictures of all the parts that are going up for sale, I will have the Edelbrock RPM Air Gap with Endurashine, the Holley Carb, valve covers, air cleaner, and booster / master cylinder.

    Thanks again. Larry

    Not running yet. Doing quite a bit of updates on the engine bay. Changed the intake and carbs, air cleaner being reworked to fit, valve covers and breathers, aluminum brake cylinder, braided radiator hoses, still waiting on the fuel regulator and pieces that I sent to Tucson to get chromed. It will be a few more weeks before I have it up and about. But, I am pleased with the upgrades so far. Larry
