Description
The Billet Specialties Center-Bolt Chevy Billet Aluminum Valve Covers (Plain) offer a clean, smooth, high-luster look for classic car owners and hot rodders who prefer a timeless, minimalist style in their engine compartment. CNC-machined in the USA from high-grade aluminum, these plain-top valve covers feature a smooth surface without grooving or logos, allowing the industry-leading mirror polish to take center stage.
Engineered specifically for 1987 and newer Small Block Chevy center-bolt cylinder heads, these tall-profile valve covers replace factory stamped steel or composite covers with a rigid, warp-resistant aluminum construction.
