I'm also looking for a set. On top of that, I'm looking for a set of "SBC" big block valve cover bolts. (they've got SBC on the head).
Sets of reproduction valve cover bolts and hold downs are available through many vendors and ebay, but they're stainless steel. I'm not sure how well paint will adhere to them for those of us with painted valve covers.
thanks dave..i phoned up my loco gm supplier (foster pontiac buick on sheppard) he said they came in 8 so i`am thinking sb,he could`n tell me if their for bb .the only he said it was for 6 and v8.dave did you order these?thanks bill
holy cow dave` you should of told me how exspensive those bad boys are worth! $3.95 for 8 lol. their getting shipping up from the states..probably the cheaping thing you can buy from gm....
Not intending to hijack the thread, but since it sounds like you got your answer...on a related topic, any ideas as to where one can get the factory wire holders that hang on to the valve cover bolts? (I have a 327 if that matters)
thx

lol....they're made in canada, shipped to the u.s., you'd think they would keep a few up here.

Mine are similar to those on the top left but they are longer (and seem to have been dipped in rubber so as not to damage the wires.)...

I finally had a chance to check the local dealers. They indicate part # 3877670 are like $5 EACH, not $5 for a set of 8. But you have to buy them in multiples of 8.
The first dealer needed to get them from USA, and said $5 each, but said a local dealer showed quantity of 2. So I went to the second dealer, and they also said $5 each, and got the 2 from the back. Interesting, the shipping tag that was on the 2 they had showed they brought in 16, and someone only bought 14 (proper # for a big block) so they had 2 left over.
So are my local dealers on crack? What have you gents paid?
o.k here`s the deal (not) when i phoned on the tabs the guy said ya we can get them $3.95 and they come in a package of 8! right on order me 2 packs they come in, the total is $71.65 i almost fell on the floor..yes they are $3.95 each and they come in a pack of 8...well i scored the valve covers so the tabs made up for it.. the cool thing about the tabs is each one is stamped MADE IN CANADA....
