{"product_id":"ford-big-block-fe-chrome-steel-valve-covers","title":"Ford Big Block FE Chrome Steel Valve Covers","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese valve covers are built for the Ford FE Big Block V8 family, covering 332, 352, 360, 361 (1958–1959 Edsel), 390, 406, 410 (1966–1967 Mercury-only), 427, and 428 CID. The FE family shares core architecture across these displacements, but some year and casting variations don't interchange cleanly, so confirming fit against your specific engine is recommended before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne important distinction: the FE 410 (1966–1967, Mercury-only) is a separate engine from the unrelated 1958 Edsel-only 410, which belongs to Ford's distinct MEL engine family and is not compatible with this cover. Confirming which \"410\" you have is a required step, not just a suggestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstruction is chrome-plated steel with a plain top style and a 3 1\/2 in. height, using a perimeter-bolt mounting pattern. Internal baffling is built in to help control oil movement and reduce blow-by. These covers are sold as a pair without gaskets, grommets, or mounting hardware, so those should be sourced to match your specific application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFits Ford FE Big Block V8 engines: 332, 352, 360, 361 (Edsel 1958–59), 390, 406, 410 (Mercury-only 1966–67), 427, and 428 CID.
