Re: Is This A Model B Side Cover
Model B design, yes (no provision for the oil return pipe). But not an original piece, looks made out of aluminum and finned. There was a guy that made valve covers I do believe and I think these might be his?

The fuel pump right below the cover sort of makes it a “B” motor

Re: Is This A Model B Side Cover
Thank you guys. I was asking because I posted another question concerning the serial number on the block which was R4-XXXXXM and where I couldn't find any info with that number letter combination, was getting info that B blocks didn't have serial numbers. So I know for sure it's a B block and it does have a Cragar OHV on it.

More importantly what does the rest of the car look like?
