valve cover for inline 6 1979 CJ7

[tevsanders]

anyone know where to find an aluminum valve cover for a 1979 CJ7 - 4wd and jcwhitney have valve covers but they say the are for 81 to 86 CJ's - will these valve covers fit inline 6 1979 CJ7?

Thanks!

No, newer ones won't fit. I bought an ebay special chrome one once (due to the low price only) and it wouldn't clear the rockers. I ended up buying a used steel one, cleaning it up and painting it.
