Mopar Small Block Fabricated Aluminum Valve Covers Black for Sealing, Clearance, and Engine Bay Detail

These Mopar Small Block valve covers are built around the details buyers search for most: fitment, valve cover height, material, finish, ventilation, and sealing. The tall profile, perimeter-bolt mounting style, and plain top style help match the cover to the correct engine build and clearance requirements.

Fabricated Aluminum construction with a black finish improves durability and engine bay appearance while supporting internal baffling for oil control. Mounting hardware is included.

What applications are these valve covers compatible with?
These valve covers are designed for Chrysler LA Small Block V8 engines, including the 273, 318, 340, and 360 CID applications equipped with 5-bolt cylinder heads through 1991. They are not compatible with 1992-and-later Magnum 5.2L or 5.9L engines, which use a different cylinder head and valve cover bolt pattern.

Will these valve covers fit my engine?
These valve covers are designed for Chrysler/Mopar LA Small Block V8 engines. Verify that your cylinder heads use the standard 5-bolt LA valve cover pattern and that your valvetrain configuration provides adequate clearance before ordering.

What do valve covers do?
Valve covers seal the top of the cylinder heads to protect the valvetrain from dirt and debris while containing engine oil and helping prevent leaks.

What material are these valve covers made from?
These valve covers are manufactured from fabricated aluminum, providing excellent strength, reduced weight, and improved heat dissipation compared to factory stamped steel valve covers.

What finish do these valve covers have?
These valve covers feature a black finish that provides a bright, show-quality appearance and enhanced corrosion resistance.

How tall are these valve covers?
These valve covers feature a tall-profile design that provides additional clearance for many aftermarket roller rocker arms and other high-performance valvetrain components.

Are these valve covers baffled?
Yes. These valve covers feature internal baffling to help control oil movement inside the valve cover and reduce the amount of oil reaching the breather or PCV system during engine operation.

Do I need gaskets for installation?
Yes. Valve cover gaskets are required for installation and are not included with this set.

Do I need hardware for installation?
No. Mounting hardware is included with these valve covers.

Will these valve covers help prevent oil leaks?
Yes. When installed correctly with properly matched valve cover gaskets on clean sealing surfaces, these valve covers are designed to provide a reliable seal and help prevent oil leaks.

Are these valve covers a good upgrade over stock?
Yes. These fabricated aluminum valve covers provide increased durability, additional valvetrain clearance, and a premium polished appearance, making them an excellent upgrade for restoration, street performance, racing, and custom engine builds.

Can these valve covers clear aftermarket rocker arms?
Yes. The tall-profile design provides additional clearance for many aftermarket roller rocker arms and other performance valvetrain components. Verify clearance for your specific rocker arm and valvetrain combination before installation.

Can these valve covers be used in performance builds?
Yes. These valve covers are ideal for street performance, racing, engine swaps, and custom Chrysler LA Small Block builds where additional valvetrain clearance and durable fabricated aluminum construction are desired.
