NOS Mickey Thompson and Edelbrock Valve Covers





Brand new, never used and still in the original box. Includes original baffles as well. Terrific find and really rare. $450 plus the ride from Houston.

Both sets of valve covers are sold. Thanks.

Perfect for that high end Day 2 Olds along with other vintage speed parts. Open to trade for unusual ‘68 or ‘70 stuff.

Are they deep or standard depth?

Just curious, what are the two raised areas above the M/T?

They look really amazing. I guess they'd have to be drilled for the breather?

Raised areas

The two raised areas are just part of the design. They are muscular looking and a very good fitting valve cover. With a cork gasket and no sealant, plus the right amount of screw driver type of tightening so as to not over torque, they don't leak. I've always run these covers on my olds engines.

Don’t believe they came in multiple heights back then. Have been told they are slightly taller than stock, but will clear factory ac and alternator brackets. If you’re interested, please do your research first. The ‘Olds’ section will knock out for PCV or standard breather. These are untouched mint NOS covers, and nearly impossible to find.

M/T’s still available for sale or trade. Also have a set of Edelbrocks, NOS new never used, have knock outs in place, and two bolt holes that were never completely drilled out, no box, and very light shelf wear. I don’t have the baffle plates for these unfortunately. $350 + packing and the ride from Houston.

Price drop on the M/T’s to $400 + shipping, Edelbrock’s are still available as well. Both sets are NOS, and have never been used, the M/T’s are still in the original box.

Those Edelbrock covers are rarer than the M/T covers. Edelbrock started remaking these for everything but Olds, even AMC! I have a set of the Edelbrock with factory baffle grommets and no plates, work Ok for oil control. Good luck on your sale.

I’ve heard the Edelbrock’s are more rare, but have never had any luck running covers without baffles in the past to clear aftermarket rockers. Replacing these with sheer metal cut to size would be easy. Was thinking of having them stripped, maybe repainted in bronze, with the exposed surfaces polished, to have them compliment an O4B intake. I like the “day 2” look, especially as most Olds’ you see tend to be original.
