    I thought my 230" could use a little bling.So I found a Merc-Cruiser valve cover,bead blasted the ****py/peeling black off.Wet sanded & polished it.Stock black air cleaner didn't quite work so I cut the base off a junk 6 cyl base & modified a chrome one to fit under the hood.I think an aluminum one is in order to go with the valve cover,but until I find one this will have to do.I'm not looking for approval or negative comments...Just thought someone else could get some ideas.
