Because the original Scarab valve covers wouldn't clear the big roller rockers on the engine. I never had the original Scarab air cleaner, if you have one for sale send me a message ;)
@Tthrizzle85 You will never get the same power dollar for dollar in an L28 that you'll will get with any V8. When People build l28's they are not doing it for performance reasons they are doing it for prestige and little more.
NO that would be 3M adhesive weather strip adhesive from where I removed the old door weather stripping and had not cleaned it up before shooting the video.
Very nice gauges in the dash! Much better than those dim dark stock ones LOL!
Beautiful car tho!

I sold it back in August 2011, hated to see it go. Thanks for the + comment, it was an awsome car.

@nwa240z If I may ask, what did you sell it for, and what power were you running. I have been looking for one of these for years. Thanks

Very nice but for me I would rather keep the l24 or l28 and built those up it would be more fun..you can get alot of power out of the l28
