Default Help, exhaust manifold hits valve covers?

What are some names of some mfgs that make valve covers for crane gold roller rockers but slope down towards the outside to clear manifolds. I may try hammering on them after while to see if they will dish out.

Thanks,

LC

Just about everyone have them and their pretty much the same. When I got mine Rex Marine had the best price.

Looks like CP has them on sale now about 12 bucks cheaper.

You can use stock Merc valve covers and grind off the oil drip tabs and they will clear Crane Gold rockers.
