SB fabricated alum. valve covers

[sydcuda]

Anyone know a place that makes fabricated valve covers in the same style as these Moroso covers? Specifically the taller 'square shouldered' type, that make the valve covers look wider and beafier across the top. All the fabbed valve covers I have seen elsewhere taper inwards at the top, making them less sexier IMHO.

But at over $400 the Moroso pieces are way too much.

There are a couple different styles sold on fleabay. I think I paid $80. shipped for my set and they are fine.

Mine have the recessed bolt holes instead of the tube sticking out the top like the Hughes covers and they were polished.

thanks...the hughes engines ones are Moroso, at over $400. Fleabay are not the square shouldered kind as in the morosos, at least the ones I have seen, but are tapered in at the shoulders - and I do have a pair in that style but I have come to realise I just dont like 'em. I want a nice flat, wide top like the moroso units.

Here's a pic of the 'tapered top' kind that I already have, which I dont like all that much.

Hmmmm, "taller, square shouldered, heavier and beefier" all combine into "sexy" ........ but doesn't exactly bring valve covers to mind Syd. LMAO

I think I better go out to the shop now. :-D

I think either one looks bitchin. But I like the Mopar Performance WIDE valve covers I have on my 408 even better...Pricey, but I think they look much better than the "regular" mopar performance valve cover...

You might look at these for $140 black or $85 polished. I'm running the black one's on my drag car. http://cgi.ebay.com/Dodge-318-340-3...r_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4cf074f5e6

I had a set of those and damn were they heavy, about 12 pounds a piece IIRC.

They are a little on the heavy side for aluminum valve covers...lol

But I love the way the look....
