Chrome Pent Roof Valve Covers, w/ hole

[PaulProe]

I am a supplier to the Cobra replica/restoration market but have shied away from motor items. In the last couple months, I have been contacted repeatedly by builders/owners, looking for Chrome Pent Roof valve covers and mostly those with a hole for breathers/PCV.

I used to refer people to Tony Branda however they no longer have them and don't have a delivery date. They may be a casualty of the Pandemic/Supply chain issues.

Does anyone know of any other sources for these? Jay Brown, tried your site but I don't see any mention of valve covers

Any ideas?

Paul, I don't have a source for chrome steel valve covers.  I did make a run of a couple hundred cast aluminum pentroof covers a couple years ago, and would like to do more of those, but (and I'm sounding like a broken record here...) the foundry won't commit to supplying the castings anytime soon.  When I finally do have them again, I will put a notification on the site - Jay

Paul: I've got an almost new set but one VC has some pitting on the top. Most likely it was dripped on with something like battery acid. It does have the breather holes.
I do have a new set of Chrome Pents without the breather holes. I'd only let one or the other set go.
If you'd like I'll post some pictures of the set with breather holes. I want to keep one set of each style of every FE VC ever made.
