I got my ignition parts in and on. What spark plugs should I run? I have the MSD coil and ignition box also.
The scripts are extra rear 1/4 scripts I had.

2 * 4 = badass engine. I like those scripts on the valvecovers - great idea.

Did you mount the emblems the same as on the car by drilling holes in the valve covers or did you mount them differently?

Yes, I drilled holes the perfect size and used a rubber mallet to hammer them in. I used a tiny bit of sealer so no oil to get through even though I don't think it was needed.

Did you rattle can them or have them powder coated? Damn, the more I look at them the better they look! They are even the perfect size for the valve covers AND specific to the Star Chief. Can't do it with Bonneville, Catalina, or Safari.

I used a good rustoleum rattle can. I cleaned them off with steel whool, soap and water beforeI painted them. I should have waited a little longer to let them dry, but they look good.
