    I forget what it was about the 1970's that made them different.  Is this one correct for a 70?

    Thanks!

    No, it's a 72 or later.

     No, it's from a 72-73 400. It use to be orange.

    How can you tell? It sure looks like the 70 that is posted on the Nick's Garage website.

    I cant see the difference from both links, they look the same to me. It even looks like the one that was on my 70 300 hurst engine. I dont see a hump. I put them side by side in the pictures. But it's late and I have been up 19 hrs now :2thumbs:

    Nope those are 72 valve covers. See the round bump on the one that looks like it could have a hole for another breather, that is suppose to not be there on 70. Here's one
