Worked great! Tiny bit of silicone, and I did one side in about five minutes!
Now I wish I had ordered his intake set.

Good to hear Ralph. Glad they worked out for you.

Installed these steel acorns this week from Speedway. Needed a wooden mallet and a block of wood to install them. They are tight on the painted nuts and that's a good thing. Three were loose on the nuts requiring silicon.

I just opened a order of acorn head bolt covers from speedway,They are made from metal and seem to fit ok. Update 75percent taped on with a soft hammer,the rest needed a daub of silicone caulk.Phil
