Good side cover and drain tube, both for $20 plus ship

wrndln · 03-25-2011, 10:06 AM

It looks like a normal 28/29 side cover to me.

Tony Martino · 03-25-2011, 12:12 PM

Thanks wrndln

No way wrndln. This one was cast up-side-down. Very unique!

I Believe a model valve side cover ?

Not true, Jason, The side cover is upside down in the picture. It is a regular 28/early 29 side cover with the oil return mount positioned up a little higher than the later style. Note the 6 bolt holes on the bottom (top in picture). I have several just like it. Sorry, Jason, it is not unique.

I got your joke Jason! Where's xʇ sɐןןɐp?

Tony Martino · 03-27-2011, 08:34 PM

Great! I thought I would have to open up the other side of the block to make it work! LOL! Anybody need it? Make an offer!

wrndln · 03-27-2011, 08:41 PM

Tony,
Many of the covers I have seen have small hairline crack(s) between the three ribs where the bolt that holds the oil return pipe is installed. You would be wise to clean the machined area off and carefully check to see if there are any cracks in that area. They are sometimes difficult to see. I think the cracks are caused by someone tightening the bolt to tight.

Joke's on you. Jason wasn't serious in his post, only making light of the fact that it's not unique, and is posted upside down.

Jason in TX · 03-27-2011, 11:22 PM

Hahaha! What a laugh I just had! Thanks guys!

Tony Martino · 03-28-2011, 07:45 AM

Guys, i think riverpop was joking too... Poking fun at himself for posting the picture upside down... He got me at first, until i saw the picture of his 'lil' hotrod... That's not store-bought glass junk... I'm sure he knows what a flat-4 valve cover is... Either way, pretty funny stuff...

Tony Martino · 03-28-2011, 11:50 AM

Valve cover? Is that what that part is?
That's the Barn for you! You can laugh every day! FREE! and even learn laughing!

kecouch · 04-08-2011, 05:39 PM

I know that base on the year that some oil return to the side cover vary in location about 3/4 of an inch up or down. Not sure which yours is.

Tony Martino · 04-08-2011, 10:44 PM

I will measure for anybody that wants it!

Tony Martino · 04-15-2011, 03:03 PM
