Building a 33 Ford 2 door and plan on using a 259 Studebaker for power. I have a Edmond's 2X2 intake (below) and have seen finned aluminum valve covers with Studebaker script. Summett has Offenhauser script covers. I am looking the valve covers with Studebaker script. My question; Dose anyone know of a source for the Studebaker script covers.
Studebaker International Inc. 97 N.150 W. Greenfield, IN 46140 part# 801458 $265.00 pair Finned V-8 valve covers without breather tubes These have the Studebaker script on them. Page 172 http://www.studebaker-intl.com/2012_website_catalog.pdf ...
I got mine from Lionel Stone Studebaker...but I heard he's not in business anymore...not sure though.
It's more fun not to tell them what it is and watch them scratch their heads. These are the Weiand convertible VCs. These were originally drilled for the Olds engine when I got them from EBAY. I drilled the Stude locations and just added bolts to plug up the Olds holes. That really gets them going.
Lionel Stone is not in business anymore, following the Okla. accident in which his wife was killed in 2009. He is lucky just to be alive. ...
