Mike,
They are not one piece solid cast aluminum. Each valve cover is made from 3
separate cast aluminum pieces, 3 machined surfaces, and 32 drilled and
tapped machine screw holes. They can be assembled without the end piece that
gives the 4 cam look. They are heavy. Each complete valve cover weighs 11
pounds.

And they are made of solid cast alumium, and no kidding, they weigh
something
like 10-15 pounds each. Absolutely the dumbest accessory I have ever seen
for the Pantera--and there are some pretty strong candidates in that
department!
