Good quality at the right price

Not the perfect fit for my Vortec but I knew when I ordered they look great and are well made, a few mods and would be perfect

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

GOOD LOOK for Engine Parts

I HAVE NOT INSTALLED THE COVERS YET, BUT I SEE THEY WILL LOOK GREAT ON MY 1994 CHEVY SILVERADO 350 ENGINE, and at a good, comparable price!

Pros
  • Heavy Duty Construction
Cons
  • Only Available in Black

DO NOT use the manufacturer's torque specifications!

The packaging says to tighten the valve covers to 6-8 ft lbs. Gm requires 3 ft lb. I didn't even tighten them to 5 ft lbs and they cracked!

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

Good product in spares

Valve covers were of good quality. There are no problems with screws. FelPro cork gaskets used, no leaks. Had to purchase a grommet from a local aftermarket air cleaner fittings/hose parts store. Sent quickly. I recommend this product and the seller.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • So far so good

Not really for after-sales executives!

They may fit GM heads well, but they won't fit heads after they hit the market without a lot of custom cutting and sanding. There should also be tubes inside to limit torque. One would assume that the tall valve covers wouldn't interfere with the roller rocker arms, but the baffles are too wide and have to be split on each side to fit between them. Looking back, I would have chosen something else. It was a lot of work! But once installed, they look beautiful.

Pros
  • Permanent Finish
Cons
  • Interval

As a Covid project to keep me busy while self isolating I decided last year to restore an engine that had been running in my garage for years. I bought parts, mostly from Revain, when I could afford them or when they became available. Covid has increased my machine work from two weeks to four months. I finally got my block back and today I'm excited to finish and install these valve covers. But to my dismay, the high quality valve covers came with bent center pins. Not one, but all eight! I…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • weak
