Re: Valve cover Help???

Have the cantons and had to grind the inside of cover behind the alternator alot to clear the first magnum rocker and had to bend the posts inside that the bolts go through they did not line up on my afr heads worth a ****,look nice but thought the build quality was poor,not worth 200 in my opinion

I'm assuming that they weren't installed in those pictures posted by VRE. I would hate to cover up those nice valve covers with the OTVC wires.

They are routed down and around. I am looking for a good picture to illustrate how they are routed, but am not coming up with any.

Re: Valve cover Help???

We used MSD wires and the looms the customer already owned, so I couldn't tell you what kind they are.

Re: Valve cover Help???

do these valve covers clear roller rockers?

would they clear shaft mounts?


I'm not opposed to hacking on parts, but it's always nice to know before hand.

We used the Comp Pro-Magnum roller rockers on the engine pictured.

Re: Valve cover Help???

I just ordered a set along with the Made-For-You VERTIACLE looms and aluminum brackets so that they don't cover up the valve covers. I'll post pics once they arrive next week.
