"Mopar Magnum" Black Aluminum Valve Covers
« on: March 29, 2019 - 08:06:25 PM »
Finishing the 360 Magnum build this weekend. Would like to cap it off with a set of "Mopar Magnum" black valve covers. However, they seem to be on universal freaking BACK ORDER!  :hyper:

How about the Mopar Performance covers?

They are available ...

These seem to be available whereas the black ones are back ordered with "no ETA" (read - discontinued...)

I would be fine with the "Mopar Performance" covers, but was under the impression that I have to have magnum covers because they have twice as many hold down bolts? Is that not the case, will they work?

You know what? I completely overlooked that, sorry. Looks like Summit has some "natural" ones (the Magnum versions), not cheap I see.

I was under the impression that the original 5-bolt Mopar valve covers will work because those 5 bolt holes are on the same location on both heads. I have a new set of those available.
