Now that's a motor. We ran edelbrock ribbed valve covers and their matching small round air cleaner in our old DRB.

Have you checked your underhood clearance? Looks like it will be tight.

Also we had to run a short oil filter.

1992 is an old DRB, ours was bought as a kit in 1996.

Is that front hump sump Gunna fit? Don't think it will fit in mine.

I didn't even notice the front hump sump, yeah that won't clear the Torana cross-member on the early DRB's.

Maybe the chassis has had a few mods to it.
