Title: Polished valve cover bolts Post by: droptop on March 30, 2014, 06:59:07 PM Does anyone know where I can get four polished thumb screw type valve cover bolts for the Beta engine?
I saw a set on a Guy Croft twin cam fited in a Mk1 Cortina last year but I never got to speak to the owner. I polished my own set last year or so I thought but in reality all I did was remove the original plating and now they are oxidised and look worse than bfoee I attacked them! Doh!

Hi Frank Get them chrome plated? Probably a good idea Peter! I've seen tasty alloy examples and would prefer them if I can source them. It's just one of those little things that side track me from the more mundane tasks..... Ooooooooh.... SHINY! I have the attention span of a hammer and am easily distracted and amused :P Peter |
