Hey Gary, thanks for the recommendation on the Chevy ends. Knowing the at the morons at the parts counters won't understand what I'm talking about when I ask for these things, could you give me a year/model/engine combo that might spark their imaginations?

Also when you say "tapered from the top" what did you do to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance.
