Re: power boost valve

I had a FSE power boost valve, it started leaking fuel over the dizzy cap 8O and it sits higher than standard, very close to the bonnet, break sharp enough and it will leave a kink in your bonnet and obviously break the boost valve and as MR Lee said, make sure u have a good fire extinguisher at hand

Re: Stay with chrome, or Shadowline (Photoshop)

i would buy a original set (already Shadowline) or buy a another chrome set and spray them properly, i wouldnt take the risk of spraying them on the car. if you dont do it right the paint will just flake off and look crap

Shaz,

if you have checked all the wiring then it could either be the
