Product Details

Features

  • 2-part design: separate T-bar top and threaded shank for tight-clearance installs
  • Long shank threads in first, then T-bar top attaches for hand-tightening
  • 4-1/4" overall length fits standard valve cover hold-down clearance
  • Fits any valve cover using a 1/4"-20 stud/bolt pattern

Description

Secure your valve cover with this chrome steel T-bar/wing nut fastener, built as a 2-part design: a separate threaded shank and a separate T-bar top. The shank threads into your valve cover first — helpful in tight-clearance spots where a fully assembled fastener wouldn't fit — and the T-bar top then threads onto the shank for easy hand-tightening.

This is a single fastener, 4-1/4" overall length with a 1" thread length on a 1/4"-20 thread — sold individually, so confirm how many you need per valve cover before ordering. Washers and hold-down tabs are not included.

Fits any valve cover using a 1/4"-20 stud/bolt pattern, common across small block and big block Chevy, Chrysler, Oldsmobile, and Ford small block V8 applications. Always verify your valve cover's fastener thread size before ordering.


Applications
Universal fit for any valve cover using a 1/4"-20 stud/bolt hold-down pattern — including small block and big block Chevy, Chrysler, Oldsmobile, and Ford small block V8 valve covers.

Installation
Thread the shank into your valve cover first, then thread the T-bar top onto the shank to finish hand-tightening — the 2-part design makes this easier in tight-clearance spots than a one-piece fastener. Confirm your valve cover's fastener thread size before ordering. Washers and hold-down tabs are not included.

Q&A

What does "2-part" mean for this fastener?
The fastener consists of two separate pieces: a threaded shank and a T-bar top. The shank can be installed first, followed by the T-bar, which can make installation easier in areas with limited clearance.

How many of these do I need for one valve cover?
This fastener is sold individually, not as a set. Count your valve cover's hold-down points to determine the quantity needed.

Why would I choose a 2-part fastener over a one-piece T-bar?
The two-piece design allows the threaded shank to be installed separately before attaching the T-bar top, providing more flexibility when working around tight engine-bay clearances.

Will this fit my Chrysler or Oldsmobile valve cover?
Yes, provided your valve cover uses a 1/4"-20 hold-down thread. Verify your existing hardware before ordering.

Does this come with washers or hold-down tabs?
No. Washers and hold-down tabs are not included.

What's the overall length of this fastener?
4-1/4" overall, with a 1" thread length and 1/4"-20 thread size.

Will this work on a big block engine, or is it small block only?
It can be used on either small block or big block applications that use a compatible 1/4"-20 valve cover hold-down thread.
