Project: BLACK METAL - '67 Camaro

[72Z/28]

Thanks, I am going to re-route the lines similar to what you suggested. I'll take pics (of course) once it's done.

In the meantime I put about 100 miles on it today and it's running great. I contacted Wilwood last week because the brake MC was leaking around the bolts causing the paint to peel. When I pop my hood, that's the first thing people noticed, not the shiny new engine, but some paint peeling around a couple of allen head bolts. Go figure. Anyways, they were happy to send a replacement cover and seal (diaphragm) at no cost. They said they ran a batch of covers that were e-coated and they had a problem with them peeling. They switched to black anodized and all is well. Here are pics of the old, the new, and a comparison of the two:

New vs Old:




And a better shot of the engine:

Man I had the same issue with my Wilwood cover about that paint peeling off, I tell what, it does make the cover look ugly.

I really like the black anodized cover, it looks awesome. Do you have by any chance the part number of the anodized cover because I had tried to look up just the cover but unfortunately no luck.
