I really like these but they are a little pricey.

I could settle for a set with out the logo, like these.

But I don't know that being that cheap is a good thing or a bad thing. Anyone use these?

 

I have the BBC versions of those Ebay ones from the same seller and like them very much. Very well made for a good price. When they arrived, the allen head bolts for the BBC covers were missing. They shipped me a new set of bolts and washers very quickly. Good seller.

You can take them to someone with a CNC machine and get whatever you want carved in the tops of them or just put a decal on them.

Here's mine. The BBC ones come with no breather holes drilled for a custom application. Because I use header evacs, I installed the breathers but it's still a tight fit because of my stud girdles. I also use thick rocker cover gaskets for a little more clearance.

 

ive been looking for those as well. they are expensive usually. thats really cheap tho.....
is that for each or the pair??
ive been looking at wysco etc summit/jegs has then for 180$ thats the cheapest. i went to a car show and they had one for 140$

im kinda looking for center bolt tho... im not really sure which ones i want yet bc my patriots accept both.

 

I asked the same question to the seller. Price is for a pair.

 

So they are good quality pieces at a good price? Not cheap because they are poorly made? I think I might buy them then.

 

procomp electronics 3301, fabricated valve cover for a small block, thats what i run, nice covers fit great

 

wait so its 80$ for a pair??

i thought it was 80$ each....

ima have to look at that site.

 

yup 80$ a pair, they are nice

 

are we both talking about skips white performacne on ebAY? or are u talking about procomps... bc they are 130$

 

BUMP!!!

 

I think the ones Skip White sells are Procomps, just cheaper. If you look at some of their other items you'll see they sell alot of Procomp stuff.

 

I have those valve covers. They are so so, nothing special. You won't be able to use factory, ARP or any other valve cover bolt though. I had to buy studs with the T-grip handles to get them to tighten down. You'll also have to silcone your gasket to the cover as well. If you're running a serpentine belt system you'll have to re-clock your alternator or cut the stud off some.

 

i just purchased the centerbolt fabricated valve covers from skip, i also bought my patriot 195cc heads from them and i love them... covers come with hardware and my car is the early non serpentine belt system. i'll have then in 3 days at 92$ i cant beat that. i'll let u know how they look in 3 days.

 

just recieved the valve covers from white performance the other day... 92$ total shipped to my door, they came with the billet rail, the weldes look good, it was polished but not mirror which i didnt want so that was good. quality seems to be good as well, i didnt realize that the centerbolt valve covers just had aluminum tubes that run in the center of the cover with no supports, just the welds on the cover... overall they are worth the money and are gona look crazy on the heads/motor.

whites performance is good in my book, so far ive purchased the patriot heads and valve covers with no probs.
