AMD small block Valve covers...are they any good ?

[76orangewagon]

I have been looking for a good set of late 71 valve covers for my Cuda since the Mounds Rd engines used slightly different valve covers than the 70-71 style and I see that (AMD) Auto Metal Direct has a new set of 72 style that have the correct looking tabs and brackets. I have been happy with their quality for body panels but thought I read about fitment issues with their big block valve covers a while back. Has anybody tried their valve covers and how the quality of them are ?

I'll show you a set next time you come over Ross.

I've used one set of big block covers, they fit well, seal well & look pretty close, there are minor details but unless your super anal they are fine...

  I've used a couple of sets, nice product.....never used the Small Block ones though...

pic of my 73 340 originals. Notice the PCV area. Seems more "crisp" or stamped, even a little flat. Other than that, looks right.
