Billet 3v cam covers..

I would love to have a set of these for my car but I don't think I could justify spending $1500 on something that does not improve my engine's performance

They claim that swapping to the billet covers takes 6lbs off the front end.

6lbs off your wallet, I guess you can call the front end, it's close

Only thing I can say is that mod motors are expensive!!!!

One reason I am sticking with the old pushrod motors until the new mustang comes out this year.

Give it a little while, and UPR will copy that design and sell them for $150.
