I can find other brand covers but would like to have an Edelbrock to match my intake. I am looking for one that does not mount with the two nuts on top. The current stock cover has four bolts, two on each side. I am I looking for something that does not exist? | | | | | Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 | The new and old 216/235 aluminum covers work just fine on the 261, just get the 'stud kit' from Patrick's or use the two LONG studs off a 216. I've had a few OLD brand covers, never seen an Edelbrock.
