Hey Guys:
I have a 72 Lemans 400 2BBL.
I just found a set of Mickey Thompson aluminum valve covers that have been sand-blasted that fits my block.
I have done a bit of searching online but can't find too much in the way of examples of how these have been finished.
Can you give me some ideas of how these were finished back in the era? I have seen them painted different colours and also polished or chromed but would prefer to do them up "original era" if I can.
Also, can I use the stock gaskets?
Thanks,
Jason
