Lots of choices out there. Even napa can get them. Jeffs bronco graveyard carries a few.

here is a link to Summit racing listing valve covers for 390 ford (same as 360)

6.4L/390 - FORD - Valve Covers & Dress-Up Kits - Engines & Components - SummitRacing.com

Jegs and about any other performance place will have a similar selection.



That being said, I personally do not like chrome valve covers. The cheaper ones are made out of pretty thin stamped steel and distort very easily causing leaks. My personal preference is for a cast alum cover, usually have a machined rail and LOTS easier to get and keep sealed.

Another option is to have the factory ones chromed. This is better then aftermarket cheapies as the factory covers are thicker. Just a thought.
