Big Block valve cover advice...

[azrapse]

Hey Fred, ...go ahead and pursue, you have my permission. If I had the "real deal" I would definitely invest;

I would still like to see the photos though erik - in case I'd like to replicate some "day 2 for my day 2" over the others I've seen. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/worship.gif[/img]

Those look awesome! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img] They just don't make the cool stuff like that anymore... I can't picture a big block wearing anything else than finned valve covers. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Erik - PM or email me what you are asking for the covers.
Thanks,

I have a set exactly like the motion ones you show in the picture but mine are Nickey.I have not installed mine yet but when I purchased them I was told they would clear full roller rockers!if they do clear full roller rockers they will not clear the booster because they are taller than the stock ones.I have not installed mine as of this time for I am waiting for them to be completed at the machine shop where they are milling out the holes for the oil cap and breather.Keep us posted if they do clear your booster.

I'm not sure if my covers would clear a power booster or not, I'd say they would because they aren't terribly tall, but I've never used them so it's hard to say for sure. They definitely won't clear full roller rockers though, they've got cast in drippers that would need to be removed. Even then not sure if they'd clear modern roller rockers. These also have oil fill holes cast in, as well as provisions to be machined out for PCV. Same covers as seen on the cover of the Motion BBC engine guides, 69 vintage.
