These are heavy duty valve covers for Cadillac 368, 425, 472 & 500 engines. These valve covers feature an open interior that clears most roller rockers and stud girdles.

This flat top style allows for customization. For example, a design can be painted on or machined into the thick top.

Because these are heavy duty, the thick flange will not warp or tweak. This gives a good seal to the cylinder head.

Uses stock gaskets (not included). We recommend cork or cork composite gaskets.

We have a set of flat top covers, polished, machine engraved with flames on special.

Finishes

These valve covers are available in the natural as–cast finish.

Read here about finishes and construction of PML parts.

The as–cast finish can be custom painted or powder coated by a local shop if desired. Note that these are sand castings and have the texture of sand. This texture usually is visible through the powder coat or paint, similar to an orange peel look and feel.

PCV, Breather and Oil Fill Holes

PCV, breather, and oil fill holes are optional. A billet oil cap is also available. Holes can be machined on the top or the side. On the interior, the top of the valve cover has bosses in typical hole locations. PML can machine holes for a $45.00 machining charge per hole. Please call to order for machining or billet oil cap.
