There were discussions about the different part numbers for the AAR/TA valve cover as opposed to the standard 340.




That is another misleading item from the parts book. Just because the parts book list something doesnt mean its gospel. Theres TONS of stuff the parts book lists that they never even made or used, but its in there. a few years ago Jerry Lebar was nice enough to let me use his AAR to show that there is no difference or clearence issues. In fact at the time I had 3 different types of 70 340 valve covers and the differences between them is actually an inch or less. I have seen many original untouched cars and I have seen both versions time and time again. Not to hijack my own thread but I will post a few of those pix. This is another example of a thread discussion that has been discussed over and over again and should have been archived for times like this.
