Mike, the Offies were DOHC 4 bangers, (you probably already know this!) and from the pics I've seen, the covers look to be unique!! wonder if the id refers to them being from a 1937 Cadillac.....I would think that the old Cad V8 would be a few inches longer than the Chevy. Just a thought. Good luck in your search. FredP
so whats wrong with primer?

I believe That any Caddy before 49 was a flathead.
