Question Valve cover specs for the 3 Valves?

Does anyone know what valve covers are on the 2006 saleens? Is it the Romeo or windsor covers? Where can I get that info?

I know Ford made a change as to the number of bolts they used from the 2005 model year to the 2006 model. Im not sure if that is the difference between the two plant, I kind of doubt it though ..But I dont believe there is any difference other than that.

Default Cam covers

I ended up going with the gloss blk powder coated. Working on a Blk and Chrome/polished stainless theme.

Where did you get the names Romeo and Windsor from? These are engine block names.....

Did 2005 and 2006 mustangs have different blocks? I know that the Romeo Block is an Iron casting. This is why I ask... I thought all 2005 and up mustang GTs came with the Windsor block.

I have powder coated ones on now:




but may also go the black and chrome route....
although mine will be the negative version of yours. lol



The diff bolts makes no diff...they both swap out. There is only one other aftermarket manufacturer of cam covers for these engines.
