Jim L stroked 70 Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I want to replace the aluminum corvette covers on my 70 with original. Are there differences in small block covers or do I need actual 70 Monte Covers?? If so does anyone have a pair for sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72MC Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I have a set of standard 350 valve covers from a 72 El Camino that I painted chevy blue. They are in great/very good shape. I don't think there is any differance in the valve covers from 70-72 for chevelle, el camino, monte carlo, etc. They're just "plain jane" stamped steel covers with no exterior script or markings. - Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim L stroked 70 Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 Iwould like them to be correct. Where is the oil filler on a 70? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robs70monte Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 on the Driver side on the back of the valve cover, Summit or jeges will have them for cheap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stangeba Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Didn't 1970 have the "twist lock" type oil fill cap? Â My 71 has the "rubber plug" on the driver side rear for the oil fill, with one small hole for the PCV valve near the front. On the passenger side, one hole at the rear area for the crank case to air filter tube. Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
