Good looking Albert. Mean looking, dig the color.
What are your plans for it? Can you FAST with headers? Not being a jerk, just asking.

I wanted to fast it with manifolds, but as I understood it there are no provisions for a aluminum block/heads in a Chevelle so I put headers on it and am going to drive it..cruise nights etc.

Looking awesome Al. I am finishing up a Mustang that I am building for a friend and am using Hushmat (I think that is the brand - am not at home). I put this on nearly every interior surface including the overhead and in the doors too. It does a nice job of muting the road sounds (you can roll the windows down for those special sounds you DO want to hear ) and reducing heat getting into the car from engine bay, mufflers, etc.
