You made these??? From scratch??? If so you are 1 incredible fabricator!

 

[Phil Reed]

Wait, wait, wait.!!!!!! Russ is a great builder but the whole valve cover.....na!!!!!
What Russ did was the the upper square corners like the Z-11's had. Damn fine job according to my eyes!!!!! But I don't have my glasses today!!!!!!!

 

[Tom Kochtanek]

Hmmm... Those corners look to be square. Wonder what they might fit ?

 

[heddrik]

Thanks Mr. Phil for clearing that up. I am not aware of the nuances in the Z 11 valve covers, they all look the same to my untrained eyes.

 

[Tom Kochtanek]

Were the Z-11 valve covers "drippers"? And what color were they? Those look to be spot on .

Inquiring minds want to know...

 

[blkblk63ss]

I didn't know it either,maybe because i've never seen a Z11. I thought he was just bragging about the paint job!!!!

 

[Phil Reed]

Got pictures somewhere......Z-11 drippers were longer than 409s

I new that I forgot my valve covers last time I was there. LOL they look fantastic Russ, I like the painted look too! These were crome and I bead blasted them and painted them with hammered silver paint., no Chrome for me if there anything other than anodized or satin aluminum they get painted

But like “rainman” says.... it’s defiantly very sparkly..... defiantly very sparkly.......

If the corners are not square, they will not clear the pushrod guide plates either.
