Re: Mystery Yenko valve covers on ebay...
Yes Maxx, those ones you have are the real deal... yours are plain steel as I'm sure you know.. they were offered this way, and also in chrome, note the differences between these and the ebay fakes...My brother has a set of chrome ones still in the original box, with the Yenko logo and reciept. I'm sure they will be on display at SCR6. JoeG: As for the finned Motion covers, Yes, Motion sold finned BBC covers with Motion emblems on them in both polished and chrome plated versions. The ones on ebay ARE NOT these... they are brand new castings that were just produced. Go to any swap meet and you will see that about every "chrome goodie" place has these in boxes, stacked to the roof, right along side the Taiwan chrome timing covers and oil pans... as many pairs as you want for about 79 bucks... GM never used these covers... they are aftermarket, and they never had Tonawanda #1 team decals on them.. that whole story they use in the ebay ads is laughable.... and its more than one seller that uses a similar far fetched story. have you seen the ones with the bogus Motion emblems, Yenko427, Nickey, and even Yenko ZL1??? People really need to get educated with this stuff, or they will continue to pay the price for ignorance... as seen in the auction in question. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]
