Any thoughts on the valve covers?  I'm not pleased with the finish/color, but don't really know what to do with them. LOL

My dad took a set of those, and bead blasted them, and clear coated them. They actually looked pretty cool, because the aluminum just looked wet all the time.

I vote for VHT black crinkle coat.  Seems to work pretty well on engine parts.

Bead blast then you can clear them or leave them alone.

I just gave away a pair of chrome Powered by Ford valve covers.  They would look really good on your engine, especially with that manifold.  Joe-JDC

I have a set of those, Joe.

We both use a lot of those v/c, but sometimes there is a good reason for that

The PBF is pretty and easy to vent.  I like the M/T too but that blue/alum/chrome look is real nice!

[Joe-JDC]

Now, that picture makes that engine look like it belongs in a Fairlane or Mustang!  Gets my vote.  Joe-JDC

Love that.

Beings that is a 352 I'd vote for the mini pent roof valve covers.  Just remember seeing more 352's with them then anything and gives it that mid 60's look.

I just binge read this.....This thing has changed directions more times than Biden....

[Joey120373]

Gotta agree, those MT covers just don’t look good. Would be cool to see them clear coated...
but, as much as I don’t like chrome valve covers, I prefer the PBF.

How bout a set of jays, custom CnC with Junk Junk on them?

Dude, you must have been bored LOL

Yes, I've changed directions a million times......but finally got it narrowed down to what I want to achieve.

I'm with Bill.

Black krinkle VHT with the fins and M/T sanded off.

[blykins]

I just really like the M/T valve covers.  They're old school and they make the engine look bigger LOL....enough room to swallow up any rocker arms, cast aluminum so they're rigid.

I bought a second set.  I may have them black wrinkle powdercoated and the ribs/logo/pad sanded down.  The second set I bought also have holes for breathers, so that will help me in some other ways.
