Panhead Engine Finned Dishpan Covers

Published by Cyril Huze March 25th, 2011 in Customs, Editorial and Engines.

One of the first aftermarket engine products introduced in 1968 by Randy Smith, these Panhead Covers are out of retirement and produced again at the original foundry with using the same original tooling and castings with A-356-T6 aluminum. They were designed to eliminate oil seepage associated with the stock tin rocker covers and to dampen the noise from the engine as well as helping the engine run cooler with the fins working as a heat sink. A cool addition to customize a true Panhead. Available in raw cast $298 or polished 371. Custom Cycle Engineering. Tel: 800-472-9253

    These are awesome and for that price they’re a steal.

    I really need to build a pan next…. just to run these if for no other reason 🙂

    Great product, I have ran handfuls of the really old original ones and the new ones are just as great.

    damn…. why can’t someone do something sick like this for Evo motors.

    You can do your Evo motors to look like a Pan or a Knuck. My buddie LaWayne at Xzotic did it years ago, and then sold them to Custom Chrome who distributes them now. Wiz

    I have seen the Xotics…. not a fan of the fake covers, nice craftsmanship, just think trying to make your motor look like another motor is stranhge.
    I was thinking more of custom Evo covers that still look like Evos. I know that Custom Cycle Engineering used to make finned tops. I am going to see if they are still doing it.
