Valve covers for old style AFR heads
I've got the old style AFR heads with centerbolt taps only. Which aftermarket valve covers fit these well? I have some black steel stamped ones right now and would like some better looking covers.

Use the corvette covers??
I have some new in box GM adapters so you could use old covers if you want.
PM me if interested

Re: Valve covers for old style AFR heads
The old AFRs(I have some as well) seal like ****. The rail is too wide for most valve covers to go over. When you buy some, make sure they have NO inner rail at all or they will just sit on top of the rail and leak. I ran some that didn't fit well with two gaskets and it still was a bad idea. I ended up with some smooth tall ones that work well.
