Valve covers, difference short/long block?


Recommended Posts

Is there any difference in size/fastening between the valve cover plates of the Plymouth/Dodge flat six and the Chrysler/DeSoto flat six? Questioning because the different lengths of the engines.

Valve cover plates are longer on the longer engine. I have a set of valve cover gaskets for the short engine and they are no where long enough for my long blocks. I got the gaskets in a box of parts I bought so if anyone is interested, they are going cheap. They are Felpro.

Robert, I just bought a set to put on with my recent explorations, but would not mind having a spare set. I see more engine work in my future! <grin>

Cheers!

John
