I see many stock pictures of the cast aluminum valve covers, some have the notched opening for the filler cap and the round opening for the PCV/breather on both covers, yet others only have one or the other.
This being said, I don't see any options when ordering these covers.
How do they come?

 

Don't have the answer to your question but was interested to know this as well.

 

They come with one of each hole in each valve cover, then you buy a grommet kit and a extra twist lock cap/breather and new bolts of some flavor as the stock ones no longer fit.

Just cuz we all like pic's

 

So all ya need for the covers is the bolt set, a pcv grommet, and an extra oil cap Merc?

 

I am trying to remember if they came with two oil caps or one, this was a year+ or so ago. I needed these to clear my adjustable RR's other than that I would still be using the stock VC's. Lot's of money just for looks guys.

#P5007617 Black Wrinkle Valve Cover Set (5.2L/5.9L Truck Magnum Engines, 1993 and Up) $214.00

#P5007620 chrome bolt set for die cast aluminum valve covers $34.00, there are cheaper opts out there.

#P5249642 cast valve cover grommet set $8.00

 

Also a very good point on the cost for looks Merc.

 

Who cares? Hey, it's less than three tanks of gas! Oooo, I've always wanted those but never jumped. They are hard to find in the Mopar "Magnum" ones. Mopar 'Performance" are readily available at Summit.

 

These are on my to-do list later on. I think they look pretty sweet.

I would really like to detail my engine with little stuff like this so I can take it to our local car/truck show.

 

You can also use older style valve covers as the bolt holes line up you just don't have as many with the older style. The ones I ordered came with 2 twist lock caps.



Have to show pictures of the breather caps I got.

 

Now there's an example of what I mean.
merc225hp has two covers that are the same, and Wildman4x4nut has a left & right handed cover.
I've also seen them with only the filler opening, and the vent opening not drilled.
Yet no where do I see an ordering option.
