they look like the Summit covers. I just tried them and they didnt fit my heads. But if they fit your heads the gasket you need is listed under the "suggested parts" tab.

personally I like the felpro gaskets but I am sure the cheaper Mr Gasket ones will do the job.

Where did you get yours? What brand? I am still searching for a fabbed cover to fit my heads properly.

Yeah I bet they are the same as the summit ones. They just dont fit my heads right. I called Summit last night and the Moroso cover that mdacton has are out of stock and they honestly dont know when they will be in. I'm searching for something else untill they are in stock. if I dont find anything else I will order them. Do yours have a rail on the bottom?
