GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
I have decided to go a different direction with my Big Block, just changing to a different style valve cover. I have some brand new GMPP Big Block valve covers that need a new home.
These are not the Summit brand, they are authentic GMPP covers. They sell for $335 on Summit right now. http://www.summitracing.com/parts/NAL-12371244/ These were originally silver but they got dusty / dirty too easily I thought so we painted them Chevy Orange. They look killer and were painstakingly masked off and prepped with PPG W&G remover painted with VHT High Temp paint. They look great. They were on my motor for 2-3 min running and we had to shut it down. Check out my build thread. $250 Shipped. If I'm too high, shoot me an offer.. Or, I will trade for CNotch, PB trailing arms, Dash pad, door panels, etc. Just let me know what you have. If you don't like them orange, you could always paint them black. The Powder Coated ones on Summit are $375. This is a killer deal, plus the breather holes have already been professionally cut. These are ready to bolt on. I really like them but I am going with Billet Specialties to match my wheels. Again, they're Orange now.. here's a pic. More in the BT but they were silver then.

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
They could be yours for the low low price .. (j/k) I'm just trying to get enough out of them to get my B/S valve covers and cover shipping, etc. Open to offers.

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
How would you want to trade? What do you need to get for your Notch kit? Pics or a link to the site? I'm looking on the ECE site now and I haven't found the kit (yet)
Thanks ..

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
Approx what do the notches cost? What would you need to get for it in trade? Post up some pics if you have a chance.
Is there a reason you didn't use it? Just extra? Thanks.

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
Would you be interested in partial trade for some billet covers with breathers?

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
I am interested, .. let's see what happens over the next couple days or so. What are you looking to get for yours ? Are they Billet Specialties ? I really really like the ones B/S has out now that have the nostalgic looking Chevrolet script in them. .. like the old Corvette type covers. That's probably the direction I'd like to go.
I'm trying to build a Vintage looking Big Block but with touches of billet. I thought I might go stock looking .. but my mind my change again tomorrow. I guess you know how it is ..

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
Would the frame / notch kit be the same for a 63 as I need for 67-72? Are the frames all the same? .. Asking, I don't know really.
My truck is a 69, 68 Clip and 73+ front K member swap. I would look at the sway bars too. No rush, .. just whenever you can. I need a good black dash pad and some Cheyenne type door panels too. Low hump black carpet, Drivers side inner fender .. prob some other little stuff. Just some ideas.

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
What brand are the Sway Bars? Are they hollow or solid?
My truck has the 73+ swap, will the front swaybar work? 69 frame, 84 front end swap (I believe) Also, coil spring rear I'm guessing would be ok?

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
The sway bars are from CPP and are solid from what I can tell. The kit is designed for 1960-72 Chevy trucks. I don't think that the '84 cross member would make any difference. The installation instructions for the front bar are in the link below.

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
Darkhorse970. I'm pretty sure I want the c notch kit, just trying to make sure the front sway bar will work. I haven't forgotten about you.

Re: GM Performance Big Block Valve Covers
I have decided to keep these valve covers. No longer for sale. I have close to $400 in them.
Thanks for the replies and offers. Things just happen for a reason. Posted via Mobile Device
