Default Looks like a 216 valve cover to me....

What are you seeing George?..... not sure it is a CMP 1940 valve cover...... but a 216 is probably right..... engine tranplant or rebuilt engine????

A shame the price will probably mean it will rust in place!!!!!!!

Cheers

That's the tappet cover with the ventilation slits in it. That type was used in the first trucks but they didn't work out in the desert sand. They changed (mid 1940?) to the type with no vents and used a different breather system.

Default So it may be the proper valve cover.....

....and that would make sense for a very early cab 11 ...... it might even be the original engine????
