Vin = j58s108524

I bought a set of NOS 7 fin high script but want to be sure low are not supposed to be on my car. Car is 2x4 245hp. Thanks

According to the current JG page 48 1958 models have low-relief (.030) and 1959-1960 have high-relief (.125)

Brandon, '58's used the low script valve cover. Just like the later '57 valve covers. All 7 fin of course.
The NOS high script valve covers are just for most '59's.
Just like Frank reported.
I have to refer to the 58-60 manual to see the scoop on when and if the 'late 59's actually had the non staggered valve covers. John
