, I believe you'll find he was reffering to the cover thing, it looks like it just Velcro's on, look rank as all hell, like some pad so your passenger doesn't hurt his knee on the shifter or something. :lol:

def put a cam in it, you won't regret it, do the valve springs too. Wade 1636 are pretty popular and you can get a regrind pretty cheap.

Wood grain looks a bit tacky to me, the shifter cover is a bit meh.. but the car looks nice. I agree with the others when they say put a cam in while its apart. They go heaps better and its easier while the head is off. You wont need new valve springs for a mild cam but if you have the head off and your old ones have done a few kms it would be a lot easier to do them now than down the track.
