what choice is there for tall valve covers that need clearance for shaft rockers, etc?
i see moroso makes some very nice but expensive tall centerbolt valvecovers http://store.summitracing.com/partde...OR-68026&N=120 303646
then i run across these on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT

does anybodyhave any experience with these?
im looking for some tall affordable valvecovers, any suggestions?
my alternator is relocated, so that isnt a factor
thanks

They don't necessarily need to be a whole lot taller than stock to work. They do however need to be wider cause the pushrod side of the rocker may very well come into contact with the cover. I saw a guy last weekend who was using the LT4 composite covers with a shaft setup. Maybe they're a little wider... I don't really know. But I think that any cover with another 1/4"+ of height and a bit more width should work fine with shafts. Thicker aluminum covers would be better IMO because they have enough beef that you could do a little grinding on the inner walls if you needed. That and using a profiled-tail rocker will help.

The bolts look like their in the wrong place on the ebay covers. Wow, that's so cheap on the covers in Summit.

Good luck,

These companies make centerbolt sheetmetal covers and I'm sure there are others...
