I saw some of the Big M valve covers that Y Bloke makes for the Y block and was wondering if he was still in business.  I sent a message via Messenger last night but haven't heard anything back.  Figuring that's probably not a good sign.  Just thought I'd ask here.  

Thanks.

https://acecustoms.co.nz/products/ has cast aluminum Mercury Y-block valve covers. The advertised price is $380, but the monetary exchange rate is in our favor. They also have Y-block cast aluminum valley covers. I bought their valley cover. Allow up to 21 days for shipping, but my valley cover took 2 weeks. Shipping was very reasonable, and there were no customs fees/holds. Initially, I had considerable trouble contacting them to place my order, because NZ was locked down for the covid pandemic. Once I was able to place my order, I was very pleased with their communication, service, and the product.

Those look pretty cool...but those Big M ones that Y Bloke has are dreamy...http://forums.y-blocksforever.com/uploads/images/acf941bb-1065-4649-9113-cb0.jpeg

These are the ace customs covers on the Merc block in my cabrio. They also cast a custom aluminum gauge panel to my drawing for my tbird. Great people to work with.

Nice!

BTW...I heard back from YBloke today- he's getting another casting run together that sounds like will take about 14 weeks until they're both cast and polished.  

Thanks!

Bought an ACE valley cover a week ago, well made, but came unpolished. He has now updated web site. The one I expected and the one I received. Not such a good deal now I have to have it
