I have an original set in good condition. They have oil drippers. Are these the same as '69 Z28? I was going to polish them and use them.
But if they are valuable I may not.

Thanks!

I have always believed them to be the same..... What are the PN's and we can check for certain... the PN is inside the valve cover....

Valve covers for 69 Z28 did not have drippers.

Here's a photo of the numbers on the left(?) The one with the oil cap. Other one is out in the garage. Why so many numbers?

My guess is if it's a right hand or left hand valve cover. The hole would be made after the casting process so its not clear what the final part number would be...

No drippers and not polished for the '69 Z/28. You can still buy new the polished with drippers version...

I was going to file the flash from the casting on the edges and polish them. Will this decrease the value?
What would be a reasonable swap meet price for these?
