Hollywood, Bikes and Boats
Ever see those boats on the TV show Fear Factor? Those are Ultra Custom Boats built by John West and his team in El Cajon, California. Ever watch Monster Garage? That is Jesse James from West Coast Choppers, which is based in Long Beach, California. What happens when these two guys get together to build a boat and a bike is what we have here.
The Steel Wheel Deal
Wheel choice is probably the single biggest factor in determining the direction of your project. Just as the thought of installing stock steel wheels on anything other than a restoration seems absurd, the idea of installing race-styled wheels on a restoration may be just as absurd. Or is it?

Product Spotlight: Bill Mitchell Products HARDCORE Manowar Valve Covers for Small Block Ford
Perfect Finishing Touch for Your High-Performance Small Block Ford
If you’re building a serious Small Block Ford, the details matter — and nothing finishes off an engine bay like a killer set of valve covers. Enter Bill Mitchell Products BMP D70870 Valve Covers, branded with the unmistakable HARDCORE Manowar logo. Originally part of BMP’s 600hp street engine crate program, these covers are now available individually — and at a can’t-miss closeout price.

Hardcore Style Meets Hardcore Performance
These tall-style, die-cast aluminum valve covers aren’t just for looks. The taller profile offers plenty of rocker arm clearance, making them perfect for performance builds running aftermarket valvetrain components. Each cover is highly polished to a mirror-like shine, then CNC-machined with the HARDCORE Manowar logo in blue — a subtle but unmistakable statement that your Ford isn’t just another small block.
Built to Last
Made from heavy-duty die-cast aluminum, these covers are more rigid than typical stamped steel versions, meaning fewer leaks and a better seal over time. The polished finish resists corrosion and makes cleanup easier after a hard run. Whether you’re chasing show points or horsepower, these covers can hang in both worlds.
Limited Quantity, Big Savings
Because these valve covers are from BMP’s discontinued crate engine program, stock is limited — and so is the price. Normally $274, they’re now only $75. When they’re gone, they’re gone.
