M-Code Valve Covers
« on: July 22, 2023, 01:17:06 PM »
I tried searching this and didn't find anything. What valve covers came on the 1970 M-code?

If anyone has any concours detailing pictures of the engine, please post.

Did you check this forum's library. Try "Ford Car Parts" (aka MPC) in section 60.5A, under Ford base number 6582. Turns out what you want are Thunderbird valve covers. With a Ford service stock number, your search will be easier.

Sorry apparently not a good shot of either side in any of the unrestored later H code and M codes in the Unrestored picture threads so here are a few of each
