Yes! They are readily available, especially after Wimbledon!

"Great minds think alike" as my dad used to say, although he sometimes added "fools seldom differ" on the end
, just the job I was doing today. Although my trumpets not being as big as yours, meant I had to drill holes in my balls to get them to fit, so they don't line up as nicely as yours do

I saw a set once for Webers that was made out of Branston pickle jar lids (No Branding thereon)
Nicely chained together and snug fit over the trumpets. Being that small they were carried in the door pocket.

Bill, is that a heat shield you constructed between the headers and the injection? I may have to address that on my build currently in progress.
Who made the headers? They are purdy!

Yup, a piece of alu with a bend that goes down close to the engine block and a piece of flat bar welded on and bolted to the intake manifold.
The headers are from GP Headers in Minnesota 218 493 4251

Thanks for the reply, but I'm not looking for air cleaners. I have a set like Bill's.
I'm looking for covers that are put on when the engine's not running like over the winter or at a car show.

You run without air filters? If so a coverup for storage could be quite creative like Enzo bobble heads.

I looked over the web site and they had some slightly larger ones. I ordered a set and will report back on their fit (or not).

Or you go to the hardware and buy sink plugs and some cord to link them together.

If it is the Bill B I dealt with a few years ago, he was in Texas and made the filter covers for me that are in this picture. There is a coarse filter and fine filter that appear to work pretty good. They could be ordered with different filtration screens and I went with the finest mesh possible

individual Weber screens
Can any of you explain (in simple language, please!) the effect of the taper and length of the trumpet - I think I've been told that a longer trumpet will yield more torque, although if this is the case there's presumably a trade-off. I'm just wondering what the downside of a pronounced taper...

A while back it was Bill D. sitting on a side walk. I watched his build. I enjoy'd that one.
