Evening :read2:

I want to buy some pretty rocker covers for my 318

I know the cheap chrome chinese ones are to avoid

I want something shiny and as square looking as possible :-k

I like the look of this type :thumbright:
Can anyone show me there's or tell me who sells them ?

Unfortunately due the shape of the heads, small block Mopar covers need to be far more rounded than those small block Chevy covers you have shown . There isn ‘t much choice these days when it comes to new covers, these are about the nicest IMO https://www.summitracing.com/parts/sum-440420

Had this on email from Mancini this morning, if bling floats your boat.

I would proffer cast , but can't seem to find a more square one in cast :scratch:

I have also got in my basket, more shiny things 8-)

Well I went for the Mr gasket fabricated covers shown below .


A heads up on these be prepared to make the mounting face flat :roll: . Took me a good hour per cover to sort them out :-k

Only bling under the bonnet Pete'

And If you do buy some of these, check the bolt threads coming through the cover.

As mine had 19mm of thread coming through the cover and the thread depth in the block was only 14mm.

Resulting is oil 9i55ing out of the drivers cover #-o
