  Did ,at one time, Moroso ever make valve covers for the F. E heads?  I am thinking some time in the 70's perhaps.....or am I confusing them with the Holley valve covers from back then...Confused

I kinda forgot that they had marketed the cast covers

Don't know about moroso, but I've seen cast covers on FEs

They do still make them for the 352-428 engines, but the only ones that I know of are made of aluminum. They cost $418.97 a pair (brand new). To see them for sale Click here.

...I seen those new Moroso valve covers for the F.E....boring.....I am starting to think that there is/was no such thing....what I am attempting to locate would be either the stamped steel or Aluminum Anodized valve covers that had the raised letters M O R O S O on the top portion of the valve cover....they have every other Ford engine family (the ones that matterWink) covered 6 ways to Sunday.
I do appreciate everyone's help with thisSmile

Hi
In the early 70's I had a set of the Moroso covers you are talking about.
I had them on my 55 Ford 390 4 speed.
The reason I bought them was they were different and I liked the gold color on my 390.
They did make them but I don't remembering seeing any since the 70's.
