The older cougar emblem looks weird to me and doesnt belong on newer Cougars. But thats my opinion and you know what they say about opinions.

Yeah thats the one. I like it on the older ones but not on the new ones. They have the newer Cougar head logo going on all over and those logos just don't fit in my mind. Eric had said it before people who draw alot seem to have their own vision I know what looks good to ME but that doesn't nessesarily look good to anyone else. So just know, I'm not critisizing (Wow I cannot spell today).

dont try to use these with the 86 up 5.0's they wont fit because of the oil fill tube. I have an original set and was doing some test fits on my new 5.0.  the oil tube comes in contact with the upper intake but I am sure something could be done with them to make them usable.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I'm not thinking a spacer would be enough due to the fact that these valve covers use the push on type oil cap.
