Need help finding a hard to find part!


I am currently searching for a pair of 2001 bullitt mustang valve covers. They are for romeo heads. They are different from the normal gt ones because the oil fill is on the drivers side. I have already called MPS and they didnt have any. I need these bc im doing a bullitt intake swap. I already have almost everything else including the hard to find discontinued throttle cable. Thanks

Quit being so cheap lol. These are sharp but expensive. You would have to use a breather cap due to no hole for the pvc fresh air hose.

id rather stick with the oem covers.

Even though those say drivers side oil fill the picture shows it on the passenger side along with the customer photo as well.

I think I have found asolution to your problem. I recently put a motor out of a 2001 grand marquis into my 2000 gt. It has the drivers side oil fill. You should be able to get these valve covers in a junkyard for next to nothing. Any 01 grand marquis/ crown vic/ town car should have these
