My engine has Edelbrock valve covers but I don't like them.





Seeking to replace these with OEM ones with drippers





Can I use them with my Holley #12111 heads?

Most likely. Rocker clearance is the usual issue, you may have to mill off the drippers and/or find a way to narrow the baffles for PCV.

I think the Holley heads was a kit fully dressed up, don't know what kind of rockers I am running though

Maybe adding a spacer would a the solution if needed, but no the best one since would increase probabilty of leaks.

I have the OEM L-82 valve covers on my rebuilt L-82 355 with AFR heads:

First step would be to pull a cover and see what rocker you have. Then, buy the stock covers and see if they need mods.

I'm able to use my oem finned covers also without any modifications on my AFR 195's. The AFR heads have a raised rail for the valve cover thereby permitting the use of oem cover. Not sure about other head designs. You could also double gasket or add a spacer.

Same here...running Dart Pro1 Platinums..........
Using stock LT-1 valve covers and Comp Magnum roller tip rockers with Polylocs.......the polylocs clear fine.....
I ran these rockers to break in the cam.....but it appears that the Harland Sharp rollers I have should be fine too......the drippers fall where the polyloc is and that is the highest point.
The engine is a 406 that makes about 500 ponies.....sneaky eh?
