Unhappy Anybody Sell.....

GMC valve covers, air cleaners, ect.... Everything is Chevy and I don't drive one. I would like to find something for my engine compartment to make it look better that isn't either for the wrong vehicle or an endorsement for a carb company. I know there are finned, plain ect but you can put those on a Ford as well just looking for something to help set old four eyes off. Any help is appreciated.


I do like Chevys just not under my hood

Re: Anybody Sell.....

Jeff,
good question. I don't believe I have ever seen GMC script on anything..... except early 50's model inline 6 valve covers.

Re: Anybody Sell.....

I have almost become desperate enough to buy a set of the v6 covers cut out the logo create a custom square badge to surround it and weld it to a valve cover than have it cromed. I know GMC's are not as popular as the Chevys because the Chevy covers many more models of collectable vehicles. I was hoping there would be something out there for us as well

Re: Anybody Sell.....

wonder if you could get some blank aluminum covers and have them cnc milled. I know that sounds expensive, but some machine shops can be quite reasonable.

just trying to help!!!!!

That sounds like a great option to me... x2!

I agree that the market is swayed one way completely, there does need to be some GMC aftermarket pieces out there.
