Title: WTB Stock Valve Covers 1964.5 260CID engine

I am looking for a set of stock valve covers for my 1964.5 Convertible with a 260 engine.

The type with PCV hole on RH side and filler neck on LH?  No notches on the bottom edge.

That is correct about the PCV and filler. I am not sure what the notches refer to?

The 64.5-65 covers are smooth on the bottom edge lip that is closest to outside of cylinder head.  In '66 there were notches added for clearance of smog tubes if equipped.  The bolt holes are in different locations on that bottom edge also.  I might have a pair, will see if I can find some in the next couple days.


The bottom edge detail has been discussed here previously.  One thread here doing a quick search:  https://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=29057.msg179528#msg179528

Thank you frank and Charley.  There is a gentleman sending me a set for free.  If it for some reason falls thru or they come and are not correct I will reach back out to you guys.

Much appreciated.
