    I'd run stock heads w/studs and nuts. No covers.....look like Wal*Mart add-ons to me.

    I recently saw a car with flipped backing plates in a mag, I think is
    was a more recent Rodders Journal.......

    Said it was done for cleaner brake line routing.

    Anyone else do it that way?

    Hah!
    It was Royce Glader's Model A RPU that's been in all the mags recently.
    Chrome backing plates installed upside down.
    Nice car, wouldn't mind being the one selling it but never would be the one
    paying >$300,000 to have it built....

    regards,
    DJ

    Here's a shot of my primer green driver. I like the chrome acorns on the stock heads. They were a popular add on back in the day. :cool:

    That thing looks good. Is there anyway I could get a bigger pic of it? I like your car a lot from what I can see.

    What can I say to that? I am totally honored! :) The T is a lot of fun to drive around. I live in a town of about 6500. Every time I take out the T(which is often), everybody on the road waves and smiles and some give the signal to honk the Ah-ooga horn. A brand new exotic sports car doesn't get as much attention! :cool:
