Default Baldwin Motion Valve Covers

Ok, next Baldwin Motion question, does the correct emblem fill the rectangular cutout on BB valve covers or not? I've seen pictures that have them smaller and pictures that have them filling it out. Thanks in advance, you guys have been really helpful.

Both styles were used. There was a larger rectagular emblems that needed the ends cut off to fit in the recessed area of the cover, and smaller ones that fit into the recess without modification.

OK, so either one is correct? Did they vary by year? They are going on a 68 Camaro.

Well, in all actuality, the emblems weren't used at all until late 69.

Rumor has it that Joel used the cut down, larger emblems when he was out of the smaller ones, they sold alot of sets of these covers mail order, don't know if that is dead true, just what I heard. SULLY

More than likely just the stock chrome GM covers with a Motion decal.

Most of the time I saw MP stickers or a Motion Supercar Club sticker on the factory chrome valve cover but they were usually made of Mylar---
