I am presently pursuing the making of a new valve cover for the 250- 292 engines.
Goals of this cover include:
Correct fit
More internal clearance
Cosmetically cleaner look
More clearance under the hood
Affordable
It is designed with fins on the entire surface with no name to break up the finned area. Bolt on breather and fill hole adaptor are planned. These would be on side of valve cover.
Internal clearance should be greater than a Clifford cover.
The valve cover is also designed so the top can be machined for conventional top fill and PCV can be used. Internally , bosses are included for baffles, in this case.
Notice the driverside of cover. The normal reliefs around the head bolt holes have been filled for a cleaner look.
Still have to design the bolt on fill hole and breather/PCV.
Thoughts are welcome!
