aero3113 Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 Does anyone have a nice pair of valve covers they would like to get rid of? Mine are pitted and the sealing surfaces are not as straight as they should be. Quote
Don Coatney Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 Long block, short block? There is a difference. Even with pitting a good cork gasket should prevent leaks as there is only minimal oil behind them. Quote
aero3113 Posted February 24, 2011 Author Report Posted February 24, 2011 They would be for a 23 inch block, mine seal fine now just would like to get some straight ones with no pits for the fresh rebuild . Quote
1941Rick Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 look on E-bay....every once in a while some aluminum finned ones come up...... Quote
greg g Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 you can get the cast finned ones from several sources on teh internet for around 40 bucks. Quote
Booker T Posted February 24, 2011 Report Posted February 24, 2011 I'll take a picture of the ones that came off my car if you are interested. I just replaced mine with finned aluminum ones... Quote
Robert Horne Posted February 26, 2011 Report Posted February 26, 2011 I used my power wire brush to clean mine and sprayed with splatter trunk paint... Came out pretty fair........ Quote
