    Valve Cover Advice

    I want to replace my "casting flaw" valve covers for correct originals. I found these online. Before I purchase, can you please tell me your thoughts? (1965 327/365hp, June 65' build)

    The lips look straight, no cracks, no broken fins, the finish is about as good as you can get with second hand covers - what more do you want to know ??

        Frank, They look great in the photos. I personally quit buying valve covers just from a photo. Long ago some one said a picture is worth a 1000 words. That was the days before all the on line auctions for sure. Hahaha.

        Story: One time I bought a gorgeous set of no seamed valve covers for the usual years. One of them had a hole in it for a pcv valve.
        Seller would not take it back.
        Took it to Corvette Carlisle. Sold it for $25.00. Last time I bought valve covers on line. True story. JD
