Yea both my '46 216 and 235 have the two "acorn nut" nuts that hold the valve cover on.

I guess what I should have asked is if that valve cover is the same physical size as the older valve cover. I don't imagine it would be a problem to drill two holes in the top to accomidate the posts, so long as they didnt end up comming thru the "chevrolet" script.


an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
