Any stock 71 valve covers in excellent shape out there? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Brewski* · 02-09-2005, 11:12 AM

The serious end of my restoration has begun. The red rocket is going back to stock. It is a little more serious than that though.
I am getting the suspension driveline and under the hood stuff done first. I already have the factory springs and most of stock engine parts powdercoated. I have the factory q-jet completely rebuilt buffed to a high shine and clear coated. This is going to be sick.
I am having every thing else under the hood powdercoated and I need an excellent set of 1971 350 V8 GMC or Chevy valve covers to get to the powdercoaters before he shoots the orange parts. I know there has to be tons of these things sitting around so someone let me know what they have.

Thanks

Brew

There's a stickey at the top of the page.
There's an auction for a set of orange valve covers.It's to help support the board.
Maybe they're what your looking for.

Those are real nice but I need stock 1971 3/4 ton 4x4 type with the big tube that comes out of the back with a cap that says 7I0 or is it 0IL on the drivers side back.

I think you are looking for a set of these valve covers, left side has tall filler tube, aftermarket intake and carb not withstanding... These are stock on my '71. There are no words stamped into the cover, stickers came off during rebuild.

I have a set from my 72 C10 2WD I think they are the same as a 4Wd and there are in perfect shap. PM me if interested.
