WTB centrebolt valve cover adapters

I am changing the heads on my motor and would like to keep the centre bolt valve covers. I have the perimeter valve covers aswell but they are tall so I'm not sure if I want to use them plus I have my wire loom bracket bolted to centre holes of valve covers. Brand new these things are costing just as much as a new set of valve covers so maybe someone has a used sitting around they would like to sell. So my heads are perimeter and I am looking for the adapters to run centre bolt valve covers.

Yes those are the ones, doing my research it looks like the adapters are for running perimeter style covers on centre bolt heads because those studs coming out. But depending how much you want for them I can probably remove the studs in the perimeter section and machine a taper and use a flat allen style machine screw and it might work.

Yes, it can be done. I did it on the other set. I'll take any reasonable offer. They've been hanging on my wall for a few years. I'd like to see someone get some use out of them.

Re: WTB centrebolt valve cover adapters

Would you do $50 plus shipping, most parts have been costing me around 40 bucks for shipping to get across border
