Gx340 Gx390 Tall Finned Polished Valve Cover Big Block Clone Predator 13hp 14hp on 2040-parts.com

SmallTownSpeed is proud to be the North American dealer for the quality cast aluminum, Australian made, AussieSpeed product line. This listing is for one brand new, POLISHED finned aluminum TALL valve cover for Honda GX 240, gx270, gx340, gx390, and their clones( including the 291 and 414 lct/northern tool powerhorse). This is perfect for giving your go kart, mini-bike, barstool racer, or any other small engine project that awesome traditional hot rod look! These really do beef up the look of these motors, and this tall cover has the advantage of being able to clear most roller rockers without having to run goofy looking spacers! This is polished(rough cast between the fins), and looks awesome, but its not a perfect mirror finish, and while it looks awesome and would be ready to enter into a mini-bike type show, its not a mass produced part, or a "show" polish. It will have minor flaws, and may have some small nicks and scratches from the shipping to get it to the USA. But if you have ever spent the time and money to polish a rough cast part, or have one polished, you will know that $10 extra for the polishing is a bargain! 

It is very important that your motor is vented, if you do not vent your crankcase(which is usually accomplished by a hose coming off of the stock valve cover), you can lose power, blow out seals and gaskets and damage your motor. Since there are several ways to accomplish this(one of which is a nipple on the oil fill plug, which would not require a hole in the valve cover), and since most of these covers will be going on really cool custom projects, they do not come pre-drilled to give you the largest amount of flexibility; but these are good high quality, non-brittle castings that are easy to drill and tap(for a vent or pulse fitting for a fuel pump). If you are not comfortable with/don't have the tools for/would rather not mess with the drilling and tapping, call me at 972-989-4003 and I should be able to help you out, but this auction is for a valve cover as pictured in the first 5 pictures.

The first 7 pictures are the exact valve cover you will be receiving. Picture 8 has Ace showing off his kind of cool that cant be bought, and the kind that can(aussie speed parts of course!). Picture 9 shows one that has been powdercoated then had the fins polished sanded down to give a bright aluminum accent. The last 2 pictures show a cast cover that had to have the lip slightly ground down for clearing a tab on the cylinder head; you may or may not need to do the same to this polished valve cover, depending on what motor you are putting it on.

Note: These are small production run, sand cast(not cheap brittle die cast), aluminum parts. These are high quality parts, but due to the manufacturing process, there can be very slight variances from part to part, and they do come with an "as cast" finish which is coarse. I personally run these parts, and have been blown away by the quality(have never had an issue with any of them), but just want to remind people that these are cast parts, not factory made, cnc machined billet parts(which is a big part of why I prefer these parts). They look awesome as is, you can paint them(or smooth then paint if you want a mirror finish), or they can be smoothed and polished, which looks amazing!
