Well, Ford Racing couldn't get the look and shape right because it's a totally different engine.

Joe, if you're simply looking for a pentroof valve cover because you just like the look of the FE covers, then I owe you an apology.

However, the guys that typically use these are trying to make their engines into something they're not....to offer up a false appearance.

Even the descriptions where the adapters are sold say things like:

"Instant brawny shoulders..."

"Have the fun of a big block without the fuss..."

An FE valve cover is huge compared to a SBF valve cover. It's just very easy to see that the engine obviously isn't an FE.
