Good morning group

I have installed roller rockers in my 327 and recall a thread a few years ago about "tall" 7 finned After market Corvette valve covers

Does anyone have a vendor that carries them?

Any assistancewould be appreciated

PML makes taller scripted valve covers for big blocks. I don't know about small blocks. Just type it in and do a search it will come up. Greg

Default Valve covers

I have heard of some folks using double gaskets or spacers with stock valve covers. Jegs has the spacers #128-63900

I bought stainless spacers for my 327 from Summit Racing and run the original finned valve covers on top of them....works great! Can be a headache if you have solids and need to adjust alot...I run two sets of rubber gaskets with them.
