Just wondering if anyone knows if ford GT (supercar) 5.4 valve covers will fit on a Termy motor? I don't care if oil caps or breather tubes match up, just wondering if they will physically fit and bolt on with out inner clearance issues. Thanks guys.

I don't see why they won't. the heads will bolt to a 4.6 block

I thought that I read somewhere that GT500 valve covers won't fit an 03-04 cobra 4.6. The valve covers I have come across are for a Ford GT, so I am just trying to make sure they will work or find out what the differences are.

We are probably talking about a $1000-1500 mistake if they don't. LOL

The GT 500 uses a smaller primary cam gear and the valve covers match this. The valve covers will physically fit on the heads but it will not clear the larger Cobra /Navi etc primary cam gear. Since the FGT and GT 500 use the same heads then i would guess that the FGT uses the same combination.
