Fabricated Valve Covers

[Resident_Ranger]

Just sharing a set of fabricated valve covers I made for my 92 2.9. My original were rusted through and its seems most of whats left out there has had similar fates. So I made a set. Its been a long process but they are just about done.

I would like to note that I am a machinist by trade, so go light on my fabrication ability. Grinders and paint make me the welder I ain't.

All that work and still running a ranger intake.

Sad!

I'm impressed. That is such a cool custom element. They look awesome

I didn't know you could get a different intake manifold. Depending on cost I might consider, but really I just want the truck I drove around as a kid back again. I'm not doing much for modifications in the general sense. But what is this intake you speak of.

On a side note, I did take a nice pass over the lettering with a fly cutter. Give a week of driving and it will look like it did before I cut it.

Scorpio/Capri dual snorkel. I had/have one on mine. Does make a difference.

I do have extras as well if your interest is piqued enough.
