Give Your Olds the Respect It Deserves — One Plate at a Time
 
When I was wrenching on my ’73, I ditched the factory choke heat riser, fuel pump, and EGR — but that left a few ugly, open ports. The ones I’d made in the past were pretty crude, and the ones out there on the market were just plain old plates. So I decided to step it up — these custom block-off plates seal things up clean, keep the leaks out, and add a little under-hood eye candy while they’re at it.
 
These aren’t flimsy store-bought parts. These are Backwoods-built, right here in mid-Michigan, custom-machined from premium 6061 billet aluminum. They’re a little bit of function, a little bit of attitude, and a whole lot of Oldsmobile pride.
 
Why You’ll Love ‘Em:
 
Premium Metal, Built to Last – 6061 billet aluminum for strength, corrosion resistance, and that undeniable “I care about my engine” look.
 
Killer Finish – Brushed clean so it pops without looking gaudy — the kind of subtle bling that gets noticed.
 
Your Car, Your Style – Pick a design I’ve made before, or throw me your idea and I’ll machine something unique to your build.
 
No Corners Cut – Includes stainless steel hex bolts and a Fel-Pro rubber fiber gasket — laser cut, oil/coolant/gas resistant, and ready to run.
 
Backwoods Handcrafted – Each plate is made one at a time, with the kind of care you can’t get off a shelf.
 
Fits Oldsmobile 455, 425, 403, 400, 350, and 330 engines.
 
Whether you’re restoring a numbers-matching 442, building a quarter-mile bruiser, or just adding some extra swagger under the hood, these plates will give your Olds that perfect mix of show and go.
