[DeTomaso] Seeking engine cover wisdom and knowledge

[Larry Finch]

….rolling eyes…..

Series one, series 2, series 3, serial numbers, are all very interesting.

What I need to know is were the side covers manufactured in different lengths?

NOTHING in any Ford publication or vendor website answers that question.
