Product Details

Features

  • Neoprene-with-steel construction seals Ford 385-series big block valve cover surfaces
  • 3/16" thickness gasket material for consistent sealing under clamp load
  • Fits Ford Big Block "385" V8 engines, 429 and 460 CID
  • Sold as a pair — complete gasket set for both valve covers

Description

The Ford Big Block Neoprene/Steel Valve Cover Gaskets seal the mating surface between Ford 385-series big block valve covers and the cylinder head to help prevent oil leaks. Black neoprene-with-steel construction at 3/16" thickness is built to match the 429/460 gasket rail pattern, so bolt hole spacing and sealing surface must match your specific valve cover for proper installation.

This gasket set fits Ford Big Block "385" V8 engines — 7.0L/429 and 7.5L/460 CID. Sold as a pair, covering both valve covers in a typical installation.

Verify gasket rail width and bolt hole spacing against your specific 429/460 valve cover before ordering, and replace worn gaskets during valve cover service or a fresh installation.
