Guys-sorry that I sent that jazzed up photo of an original engine bay.
This is how the car is today. I found some old prints of the car with
just 100 miles from new. They are not the greatest, as they faded
dramatically, but here they are any way...maybe you can copy them to
your computer and blow them up to see some more detail. This car and
engine is untouched in 1966. White wall tires were "standard" Hank

 Bob-this valve cover was available in the late '60s early '70s from
aftermarket supplier. I still have the stock green cover in my storage
closet. I use it if I concours the car. (This one is not "approved" by
concours committee. You may have the same one as mine as they were
quite popular for show and some heat dissipation (a little bit). There
is no side vent- the crankcase vent is at the T which vents to rear
carb (as original). Regards, Hank

	Henry: 

	First time I have seen my finned valve cover, except you have a sport
style cap and you do not have a side vent. So is this valve cover
original to my BJ8?

	Here is a stock engine bay on '66 bought new...other than finned
valve cover (with nuts chrome caps-removed for concours) and Stant
radiator cap, its completely stock with original "fuel mesh" lines.
