Well I forgot about my exhaust completely and bought 4.8 inch tall valve cover and they don't work so I bought 3 inch valve covers and they still don't fit.

So I did some custom raving cuz I need to out the motor in tomorrow. So this is what I did.

OUCH!! Those comp cam covers look nice have you looked into some exhaust spacers? They make different thickness ones that are not very expensive & just space the manifolds out so they don't hit your valve covers. I think West Coast Marine has them. Randy

Yea I ordered 3/8 spacer but I still don't think that it will give me enough to clear the comp cam covers.

The guy that built the original engine in my Eliminator used some xtra thick Mr Gasket gaskets & was able to use the stock valve covers on the dart pro 1 heads with poly locks. The part # is 182 I have a set if that would help you. Randy

Yea thanks for the offer. I got it to work for now and next year ill just put some nice exhaust on her so I won't have any issues with it. Thanks a ton.
