Big Block Chevy Valve Cover Needed

**mssl72** · #1 10-30-2003, 06:21 AM

I'm looking for a driver side valve cover for a 1966 big block Chevy. The valve cover should have the following: drippers, 2 spot welded clips for the temperature sender wire, 2 spark plug wire stand-offs and a small power booster notch that's about the size of a silver dollar. I've put 2 links here for 2 pictures that show what it should look like. You can see the position of the temp sender clips, the plug wire stand-offs and the size of the power booster notch. I'm looking for something that is very clean. Basically, no/minimal rust or dents. No repops. Thanks.

I see lots of valve covers when I do a search for corvettes on Ebay.

Well, I search ebay everyday and haven't seen the correct stuff yet. That's why I'm still searching.

I know the feeling I need a NOS rear taillight panel for my '69 vette and so far have not found one.

Just saw your post . You must be needing one of those in a BAD way . That is such a rare piece ! Those go for a mint on e-bay . People are always looking for those . You would give alot of money for it if i had one wouldn't you ? Had a guy offer me 100 bucks for it & wouldn't sell it . Sorry , just had to use some of the lines that have been pulled on me from time to time [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] . I do have one though . It is not in pristene condition like the one you have in your photo ( small dents , no rust to speak of ) . Does not have drippers & didn't look like it ever had them ? Anyway , want $ 25 for it so i don't think you could go wrong . Can probably send some photo's tomorrow if you want .

Do you have a GM part number for the taillight panel?
