    Diff on 62 hawks

    I was looking at a 62 Hawk on Ebay and it has 4 bolts on the valve covers and filter up front where mine has 2 bolts on valve covers and filter is on the rear where most modern vehicles are located. where there a lot of options or differences on these?

    If it has four bolts holding each valve cover in place, it is not the car's original engine. It is an early 1960 engine on down. All 1962 Hawks would have had 2-bolt valve covers, as does the Hawk you already have. BP

        You have a 'late' '62 and the one on the bay is an 'early' '62.

            Don't pay ayt attention to Bob. His medication has his head all screwed up.

                actually he's right, the switch to the 2-bolt valve covers happened a little earlier than the switch to the full flow blocks.

                    True, Jerry: Check your 1960 Chassis Parts Book for the break to 2-bolts covers early in the 1960 model year. BP

                        Rockies, correcting Bob Plama is risky, especially when he is right. 1960 was the last year for the four stud covers.(some RHD K models kept the filler tube though)

                            The switch to 2 bolts on the valve cover came during 1960.
