Need pics of modified valve covers PLEASE!!
I need some pics of modified LT1 valve covers. I know not to cut the supports out or I am asking for leakage, but what exactly do I have to bend to make the LT4 hotcam package fit under the stock valve covers.
Pics would be VERY helpful, or else you could just talk to me like I'm 5 years old and that would also work.
Thanks

Sorry, no pics but I can tell you to try to put the valve covers in place before you start modifying them. The supports may contact the rockers but they may not since the LT4 rockers are "narrow body" rockers.
If you do need more clearance, the way I did mine was with a cut off wheel on my air grinder. Using the edge of the wheel I removed metal from the supports until they would fit between the rockers. Clean them real well when you're done.

Even with the hotcam??? I'm using the whole hotcam kit...I checked the clearance while rotating the motor and everything looks to be okay, but that is all different when the motor is spinning at 2000+ Rpms.
Just checking..
