Default Best source for Cobra 427 valve covers

Anybody?

Looking for the ones that are stamped "Cobra 427".

Thanks in advance,
Chris

I think most all of Tony Branda's stuff is high quality.

Both good sources.

Clay,

I was thinking at first of the Brandas. Not sure that I want to waste my time with a no name from ebay. Guess I can keep an eye on ebay for a good name. Not looking for the chinese cheap crap that you see on ebay (been there done that, and they are not flat). I am sure a good name-brand could be had on ebay.

Maybe even a Branda.

Chris

You might want to consider holding off
on the purchase of valve covers until you
complete your FE build. Valve cover fit
and clearance issues are common on FE
builds.

Fred,

Good advice again. Thanks.

Very true on the fit. Although I am not thinking of running any type crazy huge roller rockers.

Just need a price for the build. As well, might keep an eye out on eBay. If I get a steal, I am sure that I can get rid of it even steven, if it does not work for me.

Chris
