The Hemi Valve Cover Gallery- Post pics here

Those are Edmunds.

"Bucky Austin" ??? ... never heard of him

 

.....and you complain that prices have gone through the roof on hemi blocks and parts.

Here's your reason why. Some people just have to own everything whether they need it or not

 

That guy needs them. He's doing God's work.

 

Got the valve covers and spacers from Mastedon.Covers are cast aluminum,
Needed the extra height to clear the ***an rockers

 

I did , on page 8.
I would loved to have tried some nitro but never could afford it.
I know a few people involved with that group and they have a blast. I cant run with them because I have a glide and their rules are direct drive.
PS: Car is for sale $23k T/K

 

Buckey Austin has been racing for a long time, a really long time.
He's bit by the bug bad.

Last summer in a Montana wrecking yard. There was a nice one under the tarp.

 

Here is what mine look like currently. When the car is done they will be chrome.

 

beats the **** out of me what brand these are. good luck guessing.

 

They sort of remind me of my shower walls, but none the less, I've never seen those before and I dig 'em! Home jobbers, maybe??

 

Here you go - one from Billetproof Michigan this year...

 

Om my 330

Frank, whats that going into?? Not the 32?? That couldn't get any cooler.... well maybe with a....... nah. Its cool as is, what else you have up your sleeve?


Doc

 

Your right Doc, The 32" is way cool, and for a flathead, it goes pretty hard. Went for a spin a couple days ago and she growls like an untamed beast when Frank takes those plugs out of the headers. Built to perfection. When I get a chance I'll post the video up on youtube. And yeah..... You never know what Franks got up his sleeve.......???????

Could these be Mickey Thompsons that were first milled flat and then had the shower wall pattern milled on them?

Dennis

 

From what we cam figure they were made off a mickey thompson cover and they must have filled the fins with bondo put in the pattern and then cast them out of magnesium. Pretty sure they are one of one.

 

PAGE 1, valve covers aussie made on QQMOON'S A COUPE making new batch of these covers now will be available from aussiespeed website, satin, powdercoated black or polished

i dont have any pictures yet a girl i know took some pictures of mine i have one of those 58 354 power giants kinda hard to find timing covers for cause they had a two piece cover/motormount ***y know of any tricks?

 

hey scooter do ya know where i can find a timing cover like the one in your pic

 

i have one of those powergiants and im trying to fond a replacement timing cover for it if you look closly youll see it uses a combo timing cover/motormount big ugly *** thing

 

You can use the aluminum 51-54 replacement cover from HotHeads that also fits the truck and marine blocks. It covers the lower water holes that may be in the block. It is HotHeads P/N 20211 and ~$210.

Or just fab one up yourself, it has been done before.

 

what a great thread! eye candy galore!

 

Truck engines (Chrysler) all use the 51-54 p*** car bolt pattern arrangement on the front so any 51-54 stock front cover and waterpump will interchange.

How do you spell p-a-t-i-n-a.

 

I spell it as "RUST" . . . which seems to be what I'm always fighting here in humid damn Ohio!
