Holley and Aluminum welded valve covers

I have a set of Holley valve covers that I am just finishing up, they should be ready to ship by Wednesday or Thursday, they are very nice, I will add pictures ASAP, both covers have the knockouts intact, they are painted the correct Olds Blue. 225.00 +15.00 shipping within US, I accept Paypal

I currently have other M/T, Holley and Edelbrock covers that I can paint/polish/powder coat or Cerakote to meet your needs!

I'm shopping polished M/T - Holley's now. I seem to have hit the wall finding PCV and Breather grommets? Searching for "D" shape holes, the size is around 1.5" where Jegs and Summit show 1.25" products. Dorman might make a PCV flavor but unknown if it fits? The breater side seems not to exist.

My application needs both PVC and breather rubber.I also need baffles under the holes. So, what-cha got? Oh, I like black paint between the fins.

Are you Gregg?
I have both M/T and Holley, I can paint them any color you wish and polish them and I would be willing to bet I have the rubber grommets laying around in the shop!

Yes, Gregg the grommet hunter here. "shopping" was referring to working with you.

I've checked out Holley, NAPA, GM, Summit and Rockauto. Fail. Seems Fusik has the D-shaped devils for factory tins but like others, the seal gap is too small to fit over the cast lip. Most don't fit the 1.5" hole as 1.25". There are several threads up here hunting for cast cover D-grommets to no avail. Still liking the M/T's but not liking this grommet deal where they appear to not to be found anymore? Let's talk about alternatives or shop finds. > back to Email.

No they are taller, and those are now on eBay, they didn't get much interest in here. The only covers that are stock height are Holley, M/T and Edelbrock Finned covers as far as aftermarket goes, and I do have all three in stock!

Dave,
I am a dealer for a very nice high end Aluminum welded cover that can be plain or I have several logo options, these have a 3/8 billet rail. The can be plain aluminum or polished as well. They are the same covers the big name Olds vendors sell for 390.00 + options
I also have a multitude of Holley and M/T covers that can be polished, painted, powder coated etc

The Holley with the Black Pearl between the fins are sold, But I can polish/paint another set for you. I can paint them gloss black, satin black, flat black, wrinkle black or Black Pearl, I personally prefer the Black pearl, it looks really nice, and has a very small amount of metal flake in it! do you need a set with both holes knocked out?
Your total would be 220.00 plus about 15 shipped, I would not expect payment until you have seen thorough pictures of the finished item!

not to sound like a cheap a$$, but would there be any price difference without paint? I'm actually interested in possibly painting the areas between the fins olds gold myself, but black would look great too. also, how long do you expect it to take to finish another set?

I would do 195.00 with no paint!

Gregg,
I have the covers you wanted me to do finished for you but I can't seem to get in touch with you via email or PM
The Holley covers are sold but I have 2 gorgeous sets of M/T covers right now painted black.
