sweetford55 Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Did Ford offer as an option...Chrome valve covers for the 312 Y-Block. I have a set that are chrome and stamped "FORD". These are not recent import repops. When you turn them over....you will see a band of steel about 1/2" wide go all the way around the bottom side just above the gasket channel. It was spot welded in and than chromed. They are quiet heavy and in excellent condition. Any information would be appreciated. Thanks....Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wldavis Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Florida,I am by no means an expert in this type of thing, but I am thinkingthat the T'bird may have had chrome valve covers. The 312 cu inengine would have been used in about '56, '57 and '58, I think. Oh,but the T'bird engine would have read "Thunderbird" on the valve coversmore than likely. Could have been used on a high performance 312 (4bbl or3-2bbl carbs). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
