I have valve covers that are painted the same as the engine with a painted oil filler cap. Two questions... Which cars got the chrome valve covers, and should my oil filler cap be painted or chrome? Thanks!!

400 cars came with the chrome air cleaner cover, valve covers, and filler cap.

Other cars came with painted covers and filler caps. '67 326 cars came with an A/C filler cap with built in breather for driver's side.

I am sure there are some odd variations such as AIR cars, but 99% of them should be as above.

That's what I was looking for. Thanks!!

I have painted valve covers on my 68 YS. I actually had someone say that I was 'mistaken' and the engine was a 350. I asked how he determined it to be a 350; he said painted valve covers. I pointed to the YS and asked his feeback.

My engineless car came with its origional number match intake and origional valve covers, and the covers were rusted lamf. I canned the covers and used the ones off my 350.

Three reasons I use painted covers. First, It makes the engine look ten thousand times better than hokeyass chrome. Second, chrome is, by far, the ugliest thing you can have under the hood, almost looks like something to make up for ED. Three, I have owned the painted covers since 1977.

Stock painted valve covers here as well! on the all mighty side note, chrome anything retains heat
