SBC Chrome V/C Short W/ Baffle

The PROFORM SBC Chrome Short Valve Cover with Baffle is a genuine Small Block Chevrolet engine component built to manage crankcase ventilation while maintaining a clean, polished appearance under the hood. This chrome-finished valve cover pair is designed for small block Chevy engines and features internal baffle design to reduce oil vapor carryover while promoting proper breather function. The iconic Chevrolet Bowtie logo is prominently cast into the cover, making it a visual centerpiece for any classic or performance build.

Constructed from steel with a durable chrome finish, this short-profile valve cover incorporates internal baffles that separate oil mist from crankcase gases before they exit through the breather hole. The short height designation allows clearance in engine bays with tight hood clearance or where intake manifolds, headers, or aftermarket accessories sit higher than OEM specifications. The breather hole accommodates standard PCV plumbing and allows proper ventilation routing. Measuring 9.3 x 3 x 19.9 inches and weighing 5.89 lbs per pair, these covers are engineered to fit the OEM bolt-pattern on small block Chevrolet engines without modification.

This valve cover pair is ideal for engine builders, restorationists, and hot rod enthusiasts who prioritize both functionality and factory authenticity. Whether restoring a classic muscle car, building a street engine, or upgrading a stock small block, the chrome finish resists oxidation better than bare steel and complements traditional engine bay aesthetics. The baffled design helps maintain consistent PCV system performance and reduces oil carryover that can foul intake systems over time.

PROFORM is recognized for producing OEM-quality engine dress-up components and valve covers that meet or exceed original equipment specifications.
