Valve cover question
 
I'm finishing the rebuild on my ( new..lol ) 502 mag. I have a Gil exhaust setup, and was curious as to what valve covers you guys recommend for clearing the manifolds ( I was told there could,would be clearance issues ). I'm running full roller rockers, so they obviously need to be tall. Thanks for your help people. :rolleyes:

There are quite a few covers you can use. The nicest of the bunch are the 2 piece covers from Hardin. They aren't cheap, but they sure are nice. (about $400) They also have some cast aluminum that are much cheaper(about 200) Eddie Marine and IMCO also have some cast aluminum that will work(also about $200). You can get any of them as cast, polished, or in several different colors. Give me a shout if you need any more help or would like to order some.

Standard merc valve covers should fit with some minor modifications and maybe a thicker gasket.

Anybody got a nice used set ? Maybe somebody upgraded ? Blown up ? Divorced ? Re-poed ? Accident ? Hurricane ? Sunami ? lol :evilb:
