Well, before you pee your pants from excitement thinking that you got me, those are valve covers made to fit a Windsor......they are not FE valve covers.

They are the same size as a Windsor head and everyone knows it's still a small block. There's no trying to fool anyone into thinking it's an FE....which seems to be the point in the valve cover adapters. Otherwise there are plenty of pentroof valve covers for small block Fords. Ford Racing makes them, Blue Thunder makes them, etc.

Using the FE valve cover adapters so that you can put FE valve covers on a SBF would be exactly the same as my point about trying to fit 289 FIA valve covers on an FE, so that people will "think" that you have a 289 car. No logic there.
