Ahhhh yes, so it does.
I had a set of those headers once, don't know what I ever did with them. Would love to have one of those valve covers.
I still have a set of Pinto dual cheery bomb's that I got from J.C. Whitney back in the late seventies.
Still, I'm happy with the engine I have now. I have to work on keeping the valve train properly adjusted as I've had problems in the past with the cam follower post locking nuts coming loose.
There have been several suggestions in other posts that have dealt with this issue.
I'll get it squared away one way or another.

Hey Brad,
 I made a list of parts for the Hi-Po 2.0
 I put it in the faq section.

Tony, you might want to modify the parts list. I dont think you can get a 2.0 roller for Esslinger any more.
