    but good ain't bad!!

                    Yes Ted, love the Y-Logo with the scallops, but  I think fins are warranted, after all it's supposed to be "speed equipment",(lol), and of course help do radiate/transfer heat away from the engine/oil etc, probabaly not a major concern as such, but an added bonus all the same, they sure run hot in them lil T-Bird engine bays, for example. And don't we all just love "Finned Things", (lol)

               Hey Guys, Scotty here from down under, been an observer for some time, but had nothing to say til now. First of all, i LOVE these engines, and the varied rides they came in from FOMOCO, an Uncle of mine has had, and still has, a 292 in his '34 Dodge RPU, since early '72, just great to run, and I am slowly piecing together a nice lil Stroked n Blown job, for my '29 Pick-Up, complete with Mummert prepped heads. 

               Ted, i too love the scallops on the outer edges, totally sets them from all the others, did you know, (and am unsure if still available at present), that Charlie Price, of Vintage Speed, down in Florida, has alloy covers, with both the fins, and scallops, that also incorporate the, FENTON script at the top edge of the scallops.Very trick looking cover, i have a set of these, and have had them since about 02, 03. For my money, the scallops need to be incorporated it a major factor in setting them apart from the crowd/s.

              Have read some teriffic stuff on here, you are ALL an inspiration, THANKS!

                                           MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!

Sign me up for a set.  I think it would sell.

Warsaw, IN

I believe that particular valve cover with the Y logo would sell very well.

Yup thats the design I liked also, like I said it would work for all Yblock Powered vehicals,

Ted,

The one you show there is the one I like, although there was another that had the Y logo and the scalopes.

If the picture you are referring to is the cover with the Mercury “M” on it, then that’s a different valve cover than is being discussed.  Gary Burnette found those particular covers but the supply was very limited.

 

Here’s the pic of the valve cover as posted as a link by Tero.  I’ve seen Chris Larsen’s covers on his truck and best I remember (been quite awhile), this cover is very similar.

Lorena, Texas (South of Waco)

I found two prototype pictures from year 2002.

"So I doubt there is a need in a limited market, for another unmarked finned valve cover."



Well gee Paul, I wasn't suggesting making another unmarked finned valve cover. I was just stating what MY preference was.
