Post pics of your Valve covers (center bolt preferrably). Im looking for some black chevy valve covers that say "Chevrolet" across the face of the cover in red. Show me your valve covers

 

Here's the set that's on my car right now:

 

**** sorry my bad... those are the polished ones that i decided against...

i put the painted ones on instead... here's a picture of them...

 

bootyful

 

 

easySPEED, why did you chose the painted ones over the polished?

 

mickey thompson valve covers in black crinkle finish.

 

the magnesium cannot be polished perfectly... they have little black pittings... not that bad... but i am a perfectionist...

i also decided to paint my runners the same silver... and i thought silver valve covers would suit the runners...

i sold the valve covers for $200 US so it all worked out :P

 

Has anyone tried the adapters from centerbolt to perimeter ? I wish they made cooler centerbolt valve covers.

 

Man, I dont usually disagree with you taste in mods or addons but I'm not too keen on those. What made you decide to do Chevy ones in your Pontiac?

 

maybe he has a chevy engine in the pontiac rather than a pontiac engine?

 

I chose them since they were cheap, $60 from a friend. But, they aren't on my car anymore, traded them with my brother for an Autometer Ultra-Lite Electric Fuel Pressure gauge, brand new in the box.

 

These are mine... i have NO idea where to buy them, i bought them off a guy locally, the box had no brand name on it at all, but i think they are pretty sweet looking!

 

They look like the ones you can get from flamingengraving.com. That is where I'm getting mine when it's time for them.

 

Here's mine, I like the "old school" look for the center bolt heads.

 

 

Whats the best place to get some cheap center bolts ?

 

dang LBSZ28BLOWN is there a vehicle that you own that ISN'T supercharged?

did u supercharge your lawnmower yet?

and in reply to omni, i work at autozone and i know we have a set of chrome ones for 50 bucks... if i get my vortec 350 built this summer i will probably snag up a pair since i get a discount....i just hope they arent too bad quality wise

 

These are mine:



I love 'em, but you should be warned they are NOT cheap.

 

What good options are available for center bolts. All that I have seen thus far is for perimiter bolt.. (except zephyr)

 

well theres stock.


then stock that have been painted.


if you goto www.cz28.com and search the LT1 section of the msg board, theres ALOT more pics.

 

mine were center bolt./...

 

mine were also center bolt!

Polished cast aluminium!

 

 

does anyone have any powdercoated valve covers?

 

are the valve covers very hard to change? I'd like to change mine...but I'm not much of a mechanic....would I need new gaskets?

 

Valve covers are pretty easy to change. Only problem is that sometimes there is alot of hoses and wiring above them, so they make it a pain to take the valve covers off.

Mine are just unscripted steel ones with chrome. Nothing special, but they look good.

The flamed valve covers on fb305svs 's car are on Ebay all the time... there must be 10 sets on there at any given time.

 

The standard ZZ4 valve covers:

 

I'm really diggin those vette valve covers

 

heres mine......

 

from what i understand they have a tendancy to leak, and i think i heard the engine guy say that he's had them interfere with something else.... don't rmember what tho..

Don't forget my added touch by studding them

Heres a pic of mine...

 

they aren't covering much in here YET

 

Actually im working on marketing my twin turbo kit for most domestic lawn mowers. As soon as it hits the shelves ill let you guys know.


It works pretty well, but you really have to beef up the suspension to take it. My lawn mower is running 14lbs of boost and when i hit the nitrious it gets a bit wobbly at 120mph. I found that putting a K&N sticker on the hood helps it to get a little better traction but you still gotta watch it once you break into the 11's.

At least now i can cut my grass in about 30 seconds

 

here's mine, not on the car yet...

 

Sorry, here it is again, got another one just like it....

 

mine, but also not on the motor yet, still waiting for the heads

 

I still think the most beautiful valve covers every made are the '68-74 Camaro Z/28 valve covers.. the cast finned ones with the corvette cross-flags logo on it...

I'd have them if they didnt cost $250 a pair.

 

 

383LT1intake...

Oh wow.....that's just beautiful.

wow.

...wow.

 

thanks the real job is keeping it that way i have a cowl hood so its hard to keep clean damn rain

 

I picked these up at a local swap meet really cheap and cleaned them up. They're a little dirty in this pic though.

 

Heres my new covers I just changed from polished to these. I think they will be easier to clean

 

Id like some black crinkle style but in centerbolt..
