Chrome plating not the best. As with most everything else these days, quality has gone down hill. Although they look nice, the chrome plating leaves something to be desired. I put these on my boat V8, fresh water and have been out once. There appears to be some rust forming around the mounting flange where it meets the actual cover. We’ll see of this worsens. If so, I’ll end up replacing them and maybe shop for some I can see in person first. Also the oil fill cap is plastic and feel like it could snap off.
I purchased 2 sets of Valve Covers and they both leaked I tried to install the Spectre Performance 5428 Engine Dress Up Kit valve covers on my 69 Camaro with Vortec heads. Yes it has Vortec Heads. I ended up ordering 2 sets of covers. Both sets of valve covers leaked. One of them had a cracked stud in the valve cover itself. I think the reviews I read were good. I am not sure what my problem is. Now I am stuck with leaking valve covers and I missed the return date. Bummer.FYI I gave 2 stars because I hate to give anyone one star…
Returned. Plating was thin and base metal showed through … Returned. Plating was thin and base metal showed through where flange meets upper section. Scratches were visible under chrome. T bar came loose from threads and required bolt part to be removed with pliers. Push in cap rather than threaded. Not typical quality from Amazon.
