BBC Day 2 Finned Edelbrock Valve Covers (vintage)

[scuncio]

Nice set of Edelbrock finned valve covers. I've had these for a long time. Good shape overall, will polish up nicely. Looks like they have been sprayed with silver paint or clearcoat which I'm guessing will come off easily with glass bead. Few flaws I can find are in the pics below, and the drippers have been removed. $150 + shipping.

Those are very cool with the vintage straight logo (not curved) and the fins that extend down the ends.

I haven't seen a set of those in decades .....off a car.

Very nice pair to work with.
We know they date to at least 1970 / the 454 added.
But, this style with the outboard breathers precedes '70 more than a few years.
Somebody at EDELBROCK knew where to put the breathers for ventilation instead of the usual place where they would be oil soaked.


Damn nice !

Thanks guys. As usual there is a story attached to these valve covers and they were on some very fast cars in the 1970s.
