Default valve covers with spring oilers

They are plumbed special to oil the springs, and the roller rockers direct

We have ran them in a couple flat out racecars in the past. Pretty cool if you ask me!!! We used the GM C5R valve covers. From GM high performance book!

Most people I know are trying to limit the amount of oil that gets up on top of the heads, even using low volume push rods.

So, I'm not sure you would want that.

Tim, you are right. For 99 percent of LS engines will be hurt from doing this. But for that 1 percent, they work great!!!
