Did this one to see how it would look. Came out pretty nice I think.

Also have a new valve cover gasket and a good oil filler cap if needed, let me know.




$120 shipped. Can give you some credit for your old valve cover as well.

 

Wow I really like that! Too bad its not an LE5 cover!

 

dude thats sick good luck with the sale

 

what all was involved with doing that? looks awesome

 

Polished the top flats, then taped and painted, nothing terribly special, just a lot of time.

Send me one, i'll make something happen. Biggest problem with the LE5 one is that it's all round on the actual cam bulges, so I don't know where the cutoff line would be for polished to paint. I have an idea how to make it look good though. This was the only valve cover I had around.

 

Any pics of it on the car? How much credit for the old valve cover? If you could PM me that'd be great cause I don't come on CSS much anymore

 

Never been installed, still 100% clean. Had it ultrasonic cleaned before I painted it (after sanding, just to make sure there was nothing in the baffles), then made it pretty.

Going rate for old valve covers is about $40-50, so i'd say about that as long as it's in nice shape.

PM sent.

 

bump for the weekend.

 

If I send my lsj cover in how much will you charge?

 

il take, i can send you my old valve cover, i can paypal you the money now

 

one question where did you get that paint at? It has like a metallic flake in it also i want it

 

I'll give a $40 credit for a used LSJ valve cover in return.

Paypal is Italianjoe1@hotmail.com

PM me to let me know you paid, and i'll pack it up and ship it out later on today.

It's not a metallic flake, that's just how the camera makes it look. It's a glossy black, and the flash from the camera makes it look like that. It's just the plain black wrinkle paint made by VHT, the stuff for engine use, like 350+degree stuff. I've used the krylon wrinkle on my parts before, and it just doesn't give quite the same finish, not as nice IMO. I also don't know about it's heat resistance, this stuff will take anything except for exhaust heat.

 

You order the paint off the internet or get it at advanced auto?

 

Bought it locally, either from Horsepower Sales or Pep Boys or something. Will be with all the header paint, roll-bar/chassis paint, etc.

 

Just painted another one today. Anyone interested? Has to cure for another day before I can peel the tape and take pics, but looks just like the one posted.

 

I may be

 

me too, how much?

 

Also have a new valve cover gasket, and used oil cap and coil cover, if someone needed any other parts with it.

 

Damn, that was quick

Looking for $120 shipped, i'll refund you $40 if you send back your old cover.

 

How much for one just like above?
