Old style, stock GM valve covers
 
Anyone got a nice (not rusty) set of old style GM valve covers, parimiter bolt?

I don't want any chrome tinfoil mr gasket covers. Just the stock ones, like in the picture below:

My special, fancy, expensive aftermarket covers are a little too tall and whack my turbo.

85-86 TPI only style..... I've got a couple pair.

Not sure of thier condition but I'll check into it; Should still have at least 1 set that was blasted and re-painted as well as some factory original used covers ( with some rust pitting )

Let me know if restored parts or original used condition parts ( minor defect or 2 ) are best for you. Feel free to make an offer and be sure to include your ZIP code for a shipping quote.

Blasted / re-painted, $55 + shipipng. A very small ding on bottom near corner of the valve cover to the left in the pics, ( drivers side top rear when mounted )and there's a few marks on them from being handled too. They could use a quick clean-up and re-spray before installing them to look thier very best.

John,

I'll take the $55 ones. Can you give me a total with shipping to 03079 and your paypal info? I'd like to get this transaction done asap.

I also have a set. I replaced them with a chrome set. One has a slight problem though. Looks like somebody was cutting the air tubes off the ex manifolds with a grinder and cut a small slit in the driver cover at the back. I never even knew until I took them off. The slit was filled with silicone and never leaked. If your interested in them you can just have them, you pay shipping of course.
