I am looking at the repros from D&R. Anyone here used them? If so, what do you think of them? I have a set of originals from a 69, but they are kind of pitted. MacNeish says they can be reskinned, but some of the pits will still show, and I don't want no stinkin pits. Thanks.

Go with the repro's, I think the current versions have corrected the driver's side leak issues.

I agree. The new repos are pretty good. We cleaned them, as they come with quite a bit of oil on them, and sprayed them with POR manifold cast, cut with just a little thinner. Keeps them looking nice longer.

Tony,
I plan on using the repro's on my 70 Z. They look good and although there is a couple of differences between the repops and originals unless you know what to look for you can't tell. Rick H. |

Excellent way to save some money to be spent elsewhere, such as correct trim rings, center caps, wheels and wheel PAINT..........
