No connection to the valve cover for the fly-eye. Just a GM spark arrestor that I use as a breather. Its a perfect breather if you look in one. No need to hook a fly-eye to the vc? Those spark arrestors that people think are worth $150 and up, that they use on the X-ram Z's can be found on the 1969 chevy pickup trucks and I have found them on the one ton versions also. The traction bars are the older pre 71-72 units. Hard to find, have been looking for years.

I have been trying to find out about those bars. Through researching this, I've come accross a picture Tommy posted with what looks like NMW bars.



Now I would love to see someone speculate since I can't seem to find anyone who knows for sure. What vintage are these bars? I'm in terested becasue my uncle has a set he may not be using. They also have some orange under black paint.

I wonder if the traction bars were an early design which they stopped making since Lakewood seeme to have so much of the market, or if they were made later. The catalog Tommy posted did not list the bars, and I think that was 1973.

They are Ansen bars there is a shock mount seen in the top of the picture as well.
