    The intake for a 352 FE went to a C1AE 9424-B. If you just change your valve covers it will look like a '60. If you really have a 390, that's a good thing. Keep it. - Dave

      Denise, you have a typo in your post and I cannot quite understand the question. Can you clarify?

      In the meantime . . . some '58s had blank valve cover (mine for example - made in May) while others had FORD in raised letters. In either case the covers were painted black.

        I think she meant to ask engine color/trim for a 1960.
