i bought these today wasn't for sure if i could use them in my maverick because of teh filler tube but i liked them any clue what they really belong to? i was told a 302 boss but i know that aint right and then i heard from like 86 5.0 but i'm just not sure
ok awesome do you think they will fit in a maverick with that filler tube? and how much do these things go for i paid $20
They should fit but I think I'd try cutting the filler tube down some anyway. I think the tube would look kinda awkward as tall as it is.
They came on late 80's - early 90's 5.0 Mustangs and Lincoln Mark VII's. They will fit on a Maverick fine, but not sure what to do about connecting a PCV valve.. I have a set that I wet sanded all the casting crap down and am planning to have chromed.
yeah i was looking at it and i see no reason why you couldn't just cut it and reweld seems pretty clean cut move to me
Re-re-re-confirming that those could be from any of the vehicles listed. If you need to add a hole and grommet for the pvc, you might want to be careful where you place it. I believe those covers have a relatively low profile and anything that sticks too far inside the covers will interfere with the rockers (the baffle just under that neck is even too close for comfort and will not work with after-market roller lifters - been there. I wound up taking the baffle off). If you can get an inline PVC, you could come off your intake (somewhere?), maybe.
Those are short covers, so they won't take to valvetrain mods, especially roller rockers. They were short, and the neck was tall, to clear the big EFI plenum on HO 5.0s. They were only HO covers. Trucks and regular 5.0s in passenger cars got different covers, all stamped steel. Cast aluminum was an HO perk. Dave BTW: Did you check to see if the filler tube unscrews from the cover. I never paid attention to how the steel tube was attached to the aluminum. It might come apart easy.
yeah it doesn't come apart and as far as valvetrain mods go i'm doing any not even roller rockers so i may be ok
