Agreed ... never knew they made clear covers

Last NOS in box set (nice ones) on epay went for close to $400, but that was two, maybe three years ago. I'm still looking for a unused clear one to make a pair, but haven't seen a single pop up on there since I started looking about 5 years ago. One other thing, Mr Gasket made them in clear and also in a slightly smoked color, if that means anything to anyone.

you can buy them from classic industries, someone is making them again.

I have a set NOS in the box. I got a good deal on them but wouldn't let them go for less than $400 if someone wanted them.

They usually sell for about $300ish

They've been making them for years.

I've always wondered if they would get cloudy or if they would get a film of dried oil on them after a while so that you couldn't see through them.

Never seen that happen.I had some friends who also had them.I liked that you could take a look at the valvetrain very easily.Of course you don't want to over tighten them.I used studs with a wing type washer that is used on stock BBCs to distribute the load.
