Contact Tony Branda Performance in PA.

I didn't see anything in their catalog.... is this something they stock but don't advertise?
|
A company called Ansen still makes them. They are in Torrance, CA. I tried to insert a link but the forum won't let me. Not too expensive and really nice. Do a google search. The valve covers are also are on ebay quite often.
|
the ones I found just say Shelby... im looking for the ones that say cs Shelby..... does ansen sell the cs ones?
|
I looked at the Anson site and never went all the way through the different valve covers thay make for Fords, but I think they have a place you can ask them about what you want.

They just say Shelby. I have never seen the cs Shelby valve covers for the Cleveland. Do you have any photos? Good luck.

I tried to post pics but its been up for moderation for a few days

351 Cleveland Valve Covers
Here are pictures of the two styles of 351C "Shelby" valve covers:
http://saacforum.com/galleryc/albums...0041/CSVC1.jpg http://saacforum.com/galleryc/albums...041/4cef_3.jpg I personally have never seen one without the CS logo - but I found this picture on the 'net. I believe the ones without CS are late reproductions, the originals, and earlier reproductions, all had CS SHELBY lettering. Originals also have oil splash deflectors in them. Many of the early repros have the bosses, but they were not drilled to mount the oil deflectors. regards, Jeff |
Cobrajeff, Any idea who made the originals for Shelby? Are there any casting numbers or names on the inside?
I don't remember any Shelby models coming with the 351c. Were these just parts available through them. I do know he offered a few performance parts for that motor. |

Sorry, I don't have my CS SHELBY 351 C valve covers anymore, so cannot look to see if there are any numbers or logos inside. Shelby had these valve covers and a Shelby-logoed intake or two for the 351C back in the day, IIRC. I believe he thought at one time he'd get the 351C for the '69-70 GT350 (reference the '69 "351 4V" cut-away poster featuring a '69 Shelby Mustang with a 351 Cleveland engine blow-up). They ended up as over-the-counter parts - don't think there were any production GT350s delivered with a Cleveland 351 in them. Jeff |
As stated by others, Ansen is a good place to look. Inventory goes on and on and they have been doing it a long time. If you don't see it on their site, give them a call. Here's a link to some of the SBF stuff.

In fact, here is a set from Ansen for 351C with only Shelby in polished...
