<html><body>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<br><br><div class="reply-new-signature"></div><p>-----------------------------------------</p>From: gradea1@charter.net<br>To: "rfbegani@gmail.com"<br>Cc: "Bob Spidell", "healeys@autox.team.net"<br>Sent: Tuesday April 26 2022 11:58:26AM<br>Subject: RE: [Healeys] Concours BJ8<br><br>
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<br><br><div class="reply-new-signature"></div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:16pt;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;">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
