Re: Wanted finned sbc covers

I think it is in the wrong place. i'm sure a moderator will move it.
On a side note, don't waste your money buying cheap 30.00 finned valve covers. THey will leak and you will be wasting your money. Heck I bought a set of "Cheap cal" custom style covers and they were craptastic! Check out summit, and if you don't have enough money right now, wait, save your money and buy a good set. Just my opinion, but I don't want to see you waste your money on junk.

Re: Wanted finned sbc covers

I know you said not to say it, but I got these from E-bay last year for something like $20 + shipping.
Cleaned them up and powder-coated them burnt orange.
(that is just water spots on the sides)

I actually have a vintage set of M/Ts and Cal Custom and neither have leaked.

If they leak they are knockoffs or stamped steel.
