can u make sbc valve covers fit on a lt1 heads if u drill and thread the holes, are the heads the same size valve cover wise?????

 

Buy the adapters for the heads. They are $50 or so.

 

you have to weld the heads a little where the threads need to go. Diminsion wise they are the same.

The adapters leak teribble

 

cool cuz aluminum valve covers for lt1 are high for some reason, the sbc ones are not to bad

 

Only if you don't put them on right.

 

Look on ebay and such. I got mine for $20.

 

Damm u got lt1 alum. Vc for $20 thats a hell of a steel, lol!! i have been looking the cheapest i found so far was $100 for f****** VC, i hate to spend any where near that for something that is not a mod, but i want this car to look good and run good. Im in no hurry the motor is going to be out prolly 2 months, i got to buy alot of stuff and im no donald trump lol!!!

 

I have a set Id sell ya. I used my stockers instead, and these have sat in my garage for about 2 years now. PM me if youre interested, and if youre interested in the job I posted about in the other thread

 

pm sent thanks bro

 

87+ SBC and LT1 valvecovers are the same. The only thing you might consider a difference is the "clearance" for the alternator.

 

i have mine relocated, but the 87+ sbc are center bolt VC

 

That's what I said. If the alternator is relocated, then you don't have any issues. Get some aftermarket centerbolt valvecovers.
