Valve Covers for 327 on 66 Chevy Impala SS

I need a source for chrome valve covers for my 66 Chevy Impala SS with a 327 engine. The top holes are 10" apart and the bottom holes are 8 7/8" apart. I ordered two sets and both have top and bottom holes lined up the same. The engine came with 275 HP heads but had to replace with 250 HP heads.

you might have early,pre-1958 283 heads on that-I think those did have screw holes with the spacing you describe.
