Ron,
Not a Boss any longer! I took a Boss 302 out and put in a much better fitting 331, based on a 5.0L roller engine, back in its place.
I needed the high valve covers to fit over the 1.7 roller rockers....and this new style V/C was the only thing I could come up with at the time to get me down the road. I'd have preferred a set of 1" spacers or so...just couldn't find what I liked at the time....so this is it for now! A deception! ...I do like the flat horizontal surface that these present.
I'm thinking about covering the BOSS logo on these covers with a set of original castings that were proper on the original engines.....that say DeTomaso...... That would pretty much tie everything back to the intent of an original appearing engine.
This one has a LOT more ponies than the Boss had.....due to various reasons...most of which have been corrected now...awaiting reassembly and a new body!
Ciao!
