V-10 Valve covers?

4.6LMadness · February 17th, 2009, 04:14 PM

Would they fit my 4.6l Windsor heads if they have the 14 bolt pattern?

I Dont Thank So. May Be Wrone Though.

Um no. V-10. 2 more cyliners....

4.6LMadness · February 17th, 2009, 04:26 PM

they look exactly the same size though and are the 14 bolt pattern

Pics?

i can get some but not today though, it looks like they made the v-10's pistons smaller to cram them in the valve cover. But it looks like the exact same size as my Romeo cover but with 14 bolts instead of 11

That could be a possibility...

ok from what i have read all the v-10 is is a 5.4L block with 2 extra cylinder holes drilled into it and thats where all that displacement comes from.

The V10 uses the same rods and pistons as the V8. the covers are different. It is a modular block with 2 added cylinders...

That's what I originally thought...

ok from what i have read i should be able to use them because the v-10 is a 4.6L block with 2 extra cylinders, dnt know how that works but i will keep you guys updated on the progress and im only asking because these valve covers are brand spanking new never been used for 30 bucks, cant beat that

They are going to be a little long if they truly are off a V10, each side will have a extra cylinder length in material. If you have $30 to throw away I can think of better stuff to spend it on.

4.6LMadness · February 18th, 2009, 01:07 AM

hmm maybe there not v-10's then and the guy just thinks they are cause there in an unmarked box. It dosent matter now though i found romeo heads so im set now but thanks for the help

pluss if you have the pi heads or the romeo motor you will only 11 hole covers so i dont think that would work even if they are the same size
