Thanks for the advise. Im assuming u also have a TB premag? I saw those
TES headers from edelbrock in their catalog (for $250) and have been
thinking about it. I had to change my Valve cover gaskets
today, and replaced the cork with new rubber ones from felpro. I once
saw u mentioned New vavle covers for the 3.9L premag? Where can i order
these (are they aluminum or chrome?). I would like to replace my beat up
ones.
Thanks again for the advise!
