Hot Rods M/T valve covers seem kinda cool again.

I want one of the Magnesium Pontiac valley covers! How many of them you think are still around?

 

Yep I've never seen a Pontiac Valley cover like that even on Mickey's cars maybe I didn't look close enough

 

I bought a pair of BBC as well as a set of BBC Cal Custom and a set of steel BBC and a pair of late model factory BBC aluminum finned ones the MT pair are the only ones I am planning on keeping.

 

Well I've been selling off a lot of my collection. I have decided that getting my coupe done is far more important than having shelves lined and wallhangers. Just sold my Howard aluminum heads and M/T valve covers. Please note these are not your average die cast M/T covers from after Mickey Thompson sold to Holley in 1969-1970. These are Sand Castings. The lower bolt reliefs are fan shaped and wider at the top not straight, also the engraving block is thinner and only cover the bottom 3 fins. So yes these are cool.

 

Just bought a set , I have no shame in liking the late 60’s early 70’s muscle car stuff . Plus check out how cool this bbc looks !

 

@blowby has a supercharger on his work truck! That's a hot rodder.

 

Lol, yeah, old habits die hard. I was towing a big materials trailer building my cabin in the sticks and the gutless 305 was struggling. Found a good deal on the huffer and cured that right quick. Then earlier this year I grabbed a nice 350 from an LS swap guy, rebuilt and put it in. Doesn't really need the huffer now but what the heck.

 

I like painted stock valve covers on my Chevy big blocks..

 

They Certainly Are Right On A Pontiac..

 

I wonder how this would do with better tires!

 

Needs an aluminum intake and a Holley 750 vacuum secondary carb.... And maybe a set of ******s..

 

Bring this baby back

 

I want a set of M/Ts for the coupe. Those are my initials as well.

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^BBC or SBC^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 

I have a set dedicated for the 5w 60s era build.

 

I have a couple of sets PM me

 

When I was checking breather placement the other day I noticed the bottom of the pcv slug is connected to fin differently on different covers



Then I also noticed the oil fill cap is clocked in different positions as well

 

I will. SBC. Thanks.

 

I have them on my 55 Fairlane, I think they suit it

 

cool car

 

They recently had the big blocks for $100, I checked a couple days ago but they were back to full price again.

 

Small breathers, debating whether to install them.

 

I've had several sets of the bigger breathers but never those smaller ones



I think dual smalls on sbc covers with knockouts intact would look cool

 

What air cleaner is that?

 

It was just an Ebay find that kind of matched the fins of the VCs and cleared thw firewall.

 

My latest set I put together out of a set of old black crinkle paints
