I guess  there is the potential for a new money making scheme. Buy 10
sets from Rick  and resell them on eBay calling them " rare and hard to
find" and quadruple  ones investment.

I'm in the wrong line of work I  guess.

>From what I know, the SS valve covers are  produced from original dies,
or from reworked original dies, using modern  casting technology. So you
get correct valve covers without any of the  casting issues that older
valve covers may have. I have a set of old Cobra  covers on my engine
(came with the Tiger) and they have a lot of knit lines  and other
imperfections.

What you're seeing is eBay hype and buyers  that don't know about Rick's
offerings. A similar thing happened a few  years ago where an "original"
LAT hood went for $1100 or some such  number... I'd much rather go to
Kent Wilcox and get a new hood for half the  price.
