Cast Aluminium Ford Cleveland 302 351 Valve Covers, 351 Cleveland Logo, Black

• Suits Ford Cleveland 302 351
• Black EDP cast aluminium
• Laser eteched 351 Cleveland logo
• Screw-in baffles
• 105mm tall (overall)
• With breather holes
• The tall design accommodates most valvetrain setups and can run both baffled or non-baffled thanks to the removeable plates.
• Includes bolts and baffle plates

• Engine Application: Built specifically for the Ford Cleveland 302C and 351C engine family. Suits Australian-built Falcon XW, XY, XA, XB, XC, XD, XE and Fairlane / LTD Cleveland-powered cars, US Torino 351C builds, and Cleveland engine swaps into hot rods, F-trucks and customs. The 351 Cleveland logo suits a 351C build best aesthetically but the cover fits the 302C equally.

• Cleveland vs Windsor is Critical: Ford 302 and 351 engines come in two completely different families with different cylinder heads and different valve covers. Cleveland (302C / 351C) and Windsor (302W / 351W) covers are not interchangeable. The easiest way to tell: Cleveland heads have the valve covers shaped wider with the bolts further out and a more rectangular footprint, while Windsor covers are narrower with bolts closer in. Confirm you have Cleveland heads before ordering, particularly on Falcon engine swaps where the wrong family is a common mistake.

• 105mm Tall Profile: At 105mm overall, the tall design clears a high-lift camshaft, roller rockers, shaft mount rockers and stud girdles that are common in performance Cleveland builds. Standard height covers often foul on aftermarket roller valvetrain, which is where this profile earns its place.

• Laser Etched 351 Cleveland Logo: The Cleveland branding is laser-etched into the cast aluminium top, not painted or stuck on, so there is nothing to fade, peel or fall off over time. Suits restoration and resto-mod Cleveland builds where the engine family identity is part of the engine bay theme.

• Black EDP Finish: EDP (electrophoretic deposition) is an industry-standard coating process where paint is electrostatically applied to the metal in a dipping bath, producing an even, fully covered finish across every surface including down inside the bolt holes. The result is a corrosion-resistant black finish that is more consistent than spray paint and harder wearing than basic powder coat in tight or recessed areas.

• Removable Baffle Plates: The screw-in baffle plates can be removed if you are running an external breather setup or a dry sump system that does not need internal baffling. For a standard street build, leave the baffles fitted to control oil splash off the rocker arms and stop oil being pulled out through the breather. This kind of flexibility is uncommon at this price point.

• Included Hardware and What You Need Separately: Comes with the retaining bolts and baffle plates. Cleveland-specific valve cover gaskets, push-in breathers, grommets and PCV valves are sourced separately, so plan to add these to the order. A fresh set of Cleveland gaskets is essential, as Windsor gaskets do not fit the wider Cleveland cover footprint.

• Practical Buyer Tip: Black EDP holds up well to engine bay heat but benefits from gentle cleaning to keep the finish looking sharp. Use a soft microfibre cloth and mild engine bay cleaner, and avoid harsh degreasers, abrasive pads or wire brushes that can scratch through the coating and expose bare aluminium underneath. Any small chips are worth touching up promptly with a high-temp black engine paint to keep oxidation from creeping in around the damage.

Note: gaskets not included
