Do the 2 piece B&M Valve Covers have the same clearance problems?

Thanks for your responses!

mcollinstn,
I'd be interested in purchasing a pair of them. I can't e-mail or pm you due to my membership status. If your interested, please e-mail me at [email protected].

The drippers were already machined off.

I'll try setting them on there with the thick rubber gasket...

Guys, I went and checked my stash. I found 3 pairs. One pair is "normal". Two pairs have been angle-milled and are about 3/8" thick on the short side and close to 7/8 thick on the tall side - I'd be concerned that they may not give you what you need.

Also, be aware that 1" spacers may or may not mash the valve covers into your exhaust system...

Does anybody know where to commercially purchase valve cover spacers? They must be approximately .5 inches tall and not for the $300 price Sihler's Performance is trying to get for theirs? I though I saw some in a catalog but cannot find the magazine or find any on the web. Thanks

Try K.E. Power Products. Their standard spacer is 1/4" to 3/8" but I expect they would make whatever you want. 386 446 0660.
