At the PRI show I spoke with at least 5 people who mentioned that they had been trying to get some of the Blue Thunder cast aluminum pentroof valve covers for quite some time, but they were simply unavailable. I have been thinking about another casting project, and thought that some valve covers similar to the Blue Thunder parts might be a good candidate. I'm looking for some feedback from the forum to see if there is sufficient interest for me to start a project like this. Please respond to the poll above if you might be interested in a set of these valve covers. The valve covers would not have any lettering or markings on them, they would either be plain sand cast valve covers, or the same but with machined fins on the top, kind of like a factory 428CJ valve cover but in the pentroof style.
Also, since I would be CNC machining these myself, I could make options available for different types of oil filler openings if desired, and also machine them with a notch to fit the master cylinder where it may interfere on some vehicles.
This would a pretty quick project, I think, so if I decide to proceed I would probably have the valve covers available in April.
Any comments or suggestions on what to build, or features of the valve covers, are welcome. Thanks, Jay
