Either set would look great on that car, (wouldn't anything look good on that car?) but I would have to go with the Ford Racing as well. The cast Aluminum valve covers simply look good for a longer period of time IMO.

I've never seen anyone with the 351 covers so I'd go with those. Your whole ride is unique and kind of a one off that deserves more unique parts.

those first ones look like some generic knockoff of something that was crap to begin with. fake badging and such.

I like the ford racing ones that 77 stang shows better. However whichever ones you choose I like your ford racing ones too.

The flags remind me of chevy. I'd go with the Ford Racing valve covers. Although fabricated aluminum valve covers look awesome too.

I like the Uniqueness of the 351 HIPO's, as long as their not cheapo's, which never last.

Of the two choices shown, I prefer the 351 covers. Yes, the flags scream Chevy, but they look good.
