Default Lincoln ls valve covers?
I know the gaskets are the same.. Does anyone know if the actual valve cover can be used on our cars??

Tough to tell without measurements. But, from what these pics detail, the initial concern I have is with sprocket/secondary chain clearance because of the solenoid placement? I guess you could drill your own breather tube hole also?

Nice blow up Highhorse. One thing for certain the camshaft sensor isn't located on the top of the left hand cam cover. The cam cover doesn't look like it would clear the cam gear drives. Drilling a breather hole connection won't do much good without the baffle and demister screen.
It would be interesting to see if the coil cover would fit.

You are going to pay that much for the cam covers?

Need to know the year of your car. Aj26 and AJ27 are different cam covers.
