I just scored a set of  none used Mopar Performance valve covers off eBay last week cost a little over $100 with breather and the a set of nice gaskets as well. I added the baffles and the grommets and opened the knock out buy drilling and using a burring tool to open it up ... lot of grinding there. Than i saw a idea on line about painting the words which i did it really brings it out very happy cant wait till spring so i can put them on. Here's a shot of how they came out.

I'm not one for emblems, decals, call-outs and what-not, but those covers look great...

They remind me of some of the Ford covers with the cobras on them or the Thunderbird ones all painted up in places.

I got the Moroso ones, vulcanized rubber on a steel frame. Found a good thread on DC.com that recommended them.... :2thumbs:

These actually came with a set of ultra seals from Mr gasket.  Never used them but they look like they are better than average. :cheers:
