olds rocket valve covers on chevy engine

2 pages for this shit?

If you like 'em, run 'em.
If'n ya don't, shut yer fuckin' mouth & deal w/ it.

 

I'm sure Speedway will sell you a pair of special glasses that make all motors look like flatheads. But they have cardboard frames, so don't try to wear them in the rain.

 

sell? mine punched out of the back cover.

 

YEA !!!! DOUCHEBAG ASKED FOR OPINIONS AND I GOT IT !!!! THAT WHAT MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND ....IF EVERYBODY ACTED LIKE LIVE JIVETALKER THE WORLD BE VERY BORING AND PISSED OFF AT EACH OTHER ALL THE TIME !!!! .........WELL I HAVE TO GO NOW I NEED TO BLEACH MY WHITEWALLS THEY ARE GETTING A LITTLE YELLOW....LOL

 

Stop yelling! My ears are BLEEDING!

 

Look pal, I'll leave you alone, just let it be known that the world is full of jackoff douchebags like you, and you'll go away soon enough, so I'll be ok. I'm not an angry person, I just hate posers. Simple as that.

 

I really don't get it....

 

store bought boobs are nice....don't like the fake valve covers personally

 

Good points on both sides of this coin. I myself feel it's a little over the top, and doll'in up a Chevy with Olds vc seems kinda rediculous and really going out of your way to make a chevy motor look like an Olds, which it doesnt in the first place. No i take it back. This is STUPID!!!

 

Know a guy who did this deal long before this company was in existence.

He has one of the nicest 2 toned 49 Olds coupes that one ever saw.
He has a junkyard 1994-TBI-350/700R4/10 bolt combo asy form a wrecked chevy truck & other donor cars.
He did this project years ago & another old timer partner of his gifted him a set of 49-50 NOS Olds v/c's that he found at a small swap meet back about 10 yrs ago
If you guys saw it, you'd think that it looked factory-because it is, no store bought parts on this Hot Rod Olds. he even adapted the tilt column from the truck & painted the column the interiors original color & is running the factory 49's wheel with horn ring.
This guy is over 70 yrs old and shares a ownership of a "Hobbie Shop" where all they do is build their own cars. A new one rolls out every couple of years.
This is what hot rodding is all about=Using your nut!!!!
I'm a pretty tradional guy, but I appreciate the amount of thought that goes into a quality project.

 

I'm gonna cut all the corners and just buy one of those chrome fender scripts that says "hotrod" and put it on a cheap 78 Gremlin. Then I'm done!

 

tilt column??? my '54 has an '84 clip and it still has a stock column. wtf

 

Way cool dude I'm sure nobody will notice the heads, exhaust ports, or water pump are still SBC you'll have all the gearheads fooled.

If you want an SBC then run and SBC there are plenty of ways to build a good looking one.

 

Why would anyone be stupid enought to do this. If your running the best engine ever built why hide it?????

 

that's the sad part. most of the "gearheads" are fuckin posers that don't know the difference.

 

if your that embarresed to have a chevy [i call them bellybutton motors cause eevry one has one] motor in your ride you have to hide it with other brand v/c you should yank the sbc
i've seen fe ford, linc, olds, hemi, mopar poly and one guy who bolted a set of ford flatheads on his sbc. when i see this i wanna puck on the dudes mill right there. hey what's next? how bout a pr of toyota or honda covers? that would be real kool john
59 ranchero
34 ford 5w

 

I know, Ill put Rocket Valvecovers on my 401 Nailhead and put a bowtie on it..that will really confuse the know-alls. I can see it now..guy walks up, looks at it and says I had one just like it bach in high school, quote"man I miss my old Chevy, those valve covers were real hard to come by, I knew I shouldn't have got rid of my spare set!"

 

A little hint dsanchez everybody in the world does acts like that
it's the good the evil syndrome here lets explain

olds valvecovers+chevy = evil
olds+olds= good
chevy+chevy= good
you acting like a jackass for buying into this shit =priceless
not to mention its fucking gay

 

I want to put Olds covers on my inline 6... Do they have a kit for that yet...???

 

This guy has a set on his OldSkoolRatRod.

 

No , but you CAN get some Fake Ardun covers ---- wonder if they would take fake dollars for em??

OK,i guess i was just wasting time and money building my engine.
i'm gonna get a Honda and paint "Harley Davidson" on the gas tank.
I'm sure the 1%ers will get a good laugh outta that one.

 

If somebody would figure out how to make a sbc OR ANY OTHER engine SOUND like A OLDS ROCKET, NOW you'd have something !!!
Even my Beloved 392's don't Sound as good as a rocket!!

Dave

 

I love those valve covers.

btw: what kinda rockers you got?

 

a set of Isky's right now,but i need to swap on my "secret weapon" setup (stude rockers on caddy shafts) soon.

 

siamese the center exhaust pipes into one tube on a SBC then get the cam reground to the Olds firing order.

 

that's funny... i tried to buy a stuck studie a few months ago just for the rockers, but the guy thought the motor was worth $$$ even though it was stuck.

what are you gonna do with the iskys afterwards?

 

give them back to the guy i borrowed'em from.

 

No but they make em for SBC......yuuuuuck

 

It's all these SBC owners that run up the prices on olds 49 valve covers!!!
heck if i wanted to buy a pair to run on my 303 i have to bid against these sbc people... GET YOURSELF SOM FRICKING CAL CUSTOM OR CORVETTE VALVE COVERS they are cool enough!!
