    Is something that was produced in the millions ever gonna reach holy grail status? I thought the concept meant rare and desirable.

    Wow, those Nicson valve covers are pretty rare as I've never seen anything like that. And I used to own a Nicson 2 by 2 intake for a small block chev.

    Still looking for a low-deck (241/270) Dodge Red Ram Hemi 4-71 manifold.

    The last two that I had a line on got sent to the scrapper by heirs that just wanted the house.
