Product details
This bail clips over a stock-style valve cover to hold it against the cylinder head. It replaces a missing or damaged spring retainer and does not turn the cover into a bolt-on type. Check the cover and gasket condition at the same time, since the bail cannot fix a distorted sealing surface.
