question about valve covers...

ec heads have a center bolt pattern for valve covers. And I have some heads that are Miloden's and they have 2 bolts on either side of them. 4 bolts total on each head. I was wondering if there was a way I could use these. Is there something Im missing, or a conversion kit I can buy. Thanks, would really like to use them, but dont know if I can... Here is a pic of them.... Thanks,

you might want to try this again you're not very clear, or i'm a little dense. you have center bolt heads and want to use peremeter bolt valve covers, not heads right? i believe someone does make an adapter for this. call 1-800-345-4545 and tell them waht you're wanting to do.

haha, ok I dont know where that number goes too but ok? No, sorry I will be a little more clear. I have centerbolt style Vortec heads, and I have some perimeter valve covers, and I want to put them on, but *** is telling me no. Haha, help please.
