Reply to "Mangusta valve covers - blue or passivated?"

leeaMember

definitely just Ford Corporate Blue for 1968, matches the block, heads, oil pan and intake manifold. DeTomaso added the throttle spring return tab on the passenger side and added the Detomaso Emblems, but otherwise its not clear that even the valve covers were repainted or just re-touched after adding the throttle return tab.

I think earlier Ford Blue (before the 302) was a little lighter, you can google any of the Ford forums and confirm the right hue.

Btw, the Powered By Ford valve covers are repro'd, in case yours were swapped for something inspired by a K-code, the only thing missing is the throttle tab.
