Here’s another pair of valve covers from NewZealand.  These have had additionalbreathers added.  These also have the ‘BC’casting identifier on their bottom sides.

What's currently on the car, and a little mancave / garage art.

I've had this pair for a while. So, I'm finally getting around to refinishing them. Need another y-block to put them on though!
I don't see the old curved script style around too much.

- 1958 MERCURY SUPER MARAUDER 3X2 400HP -

These rocker covers were an option in addition to the carb setup.

LINC offered a intake/carb kit in 1958 with a different ACL style.

The LINC (and 59/60 J-BIRD) rocker covers were plain stamped metal resembling the early FE baldies. Chromed was available.

MERC had the M stamped in the sheet metal cover. EDSEL had the E-475 raised letters.

Here is (was?) a source for repro (LINC - MERC (M) - PLAIN) CAST AUM -

Buzz,
I had trouble also.  Click on insert, you will then see a row options to the right. Click on the on the one symbol for pictures,
it’s to the left the video. That will give you a window to choose your photos. Click on the photo, it will show you how many pixels, click on that and choose a reduced size, and use.  That should do it.

Too bad more custom covers weren't made for the 368

Kultulz posted on the 2nd page of this thread pictures of both the Lincoln and Mercury aluminum valve covers for the 368 engines.  Here’s the direct link to view those covers.  Custom valve covers for those engines are definitely in short supply.
http://forums.y-blocksforever.com/FindPost157226.aspx 

Just a reminder, LYB and MEL valve covers are also welcome on this thread.  LYB engines would include 302, 317, 341, 332, & 368.  M-E-L engines would include 383, 410, 430, & 462.  If you have some of those valve covers, let’s see pictures of those.

Here are the valve covers from a Mercury 383 M-E-L engine with some added breathers.
