Moroso has some nice centerbolt valve covers. Machined for extra rocket clearance as well. They are a bit steep but are worth it.

What RR's are you getting? I think the crane gold race rockers are supposed to fit stock valve covers(i'm pretty sure...)

I've got these valve covers from JEGs



They are no taller than the Edelbrocks & I have Crane Energizer (I think.. be awhile since I paid for them) 1.6 RR's under them with no probs

I saw awhile back on the tech or TPI board.. someone has similar ones to mine but, taller.

I have the CraneCam Gold Race billet aluminum. They will fit under the stock valve covers? Cool! I'm going to check before i buy new covers. Thanks.
