I need the bolt and clip that hold the valve cover down to the head.

i'll see if i got any extras, i doubt it... no luck at napa or any store? seems like an easy part to get.

yeah they have them, but they're all chrome, i just wanted one of the originals so I didn't have 6 dull and 1 shiny chrome, and I didn't want to buy 2 packs of chrome ones, which is what i'll have to do if I can't find 1...thanks for looking though.

I think I remember when I pulled this head that it was missing one of those clamps...wish I would've thought to try and find another while I was at the junk yard...

maybe get one chrome one sand/grind them all a little and paint them all black. the chrome one may be a little brighter showing through the black so maybe put that one where its not highly visable like the back or the one near carb hopefully the carb will hide it or put in front, bend new fuel line to block it from view or when u put the wires on(if u do) have them block it? thats what i'd do just me thinking out loud....

Isn't that washer (or whatever it's called) the same as on a V-8?
