2wild4u, IPR ones look good too, sshatch355, as for the KC ones they do look great when fitted.
i didn't think they look that good until now. your colour combo is similar to
what mine is going to be orange with black/silver engine, thanx again people it helped alot.

I've got a set of the KC ones sitting in my shed. They won't fit over the roller rockers with the engine in the car. I also still have the fan housing on the firewall & Torana engine mounts.
