So lucky

Are you waiting to see who knows what that bad boy is before you give the details?

It's a kevlar valve cover with no coil pack holes. Probably a one off....

It's purdy

Dang.

Yeah that was pretty much it

1 of 1 Kevlar valve cover that was the prototype for the carbon fiber one.

It's super sexy, do like! Are you putting it on the car or just using it as a decorative piece?

For now it's going on the wall as a decorative piece, compared to the carbon one this isn't as functional because it doesn't have all the baffling inside and isn't sealed as well. It seems like it was more of a fitment prototype than a functional prototype. It would also take a bit work to get it to work on the car because i would have to remount the coil pack elsewhere since it doesn't have a mount for it anywhere and custom make longer plug wires to reach the new position of the coil.

I'm thinking maybe waaay in the future I can have a board with all my valve covers mounted to it and maybe even leds inside each one or something.

Original Magnum Cover
Powdercoated Cover
Carbon Fiber Cover
Kevlar Cover

That means I need to pick up like 3 more Mobil 1 Oil caps

I'm a whore for rare neon parts.

Nice find Dave! Any other cool purchases?

I remember I wasn't prepared to spend any money at the show back in 2007, I just didn't realize there would be that much cool stuff to buy. Next year I'll be prepared.

Dude, a guy over on neons.org is doing a coil on plug setup. That would be so AWESOME!

Now, I know this has likely been convered SOMEWHERE, but Gramps and I talked last fall about this and we both said BOTH names...

For the Win Neon? Forte Wayne Neon? I swore it was Forte Wayne Neon.

"Fort Wayne Neon" but FTW fits just as well.

I saw that at Mancini before you bought it but didn't bite.

this valve cover is more show than go, Dave and I looked at it and it definately is the 1 of 1 prototype for the Carbon unit and it would take some little work to get it useable on a driver....

Curious to see how it will look once you have installed it.
