Default Replacing 92 Mag Valve Covers with 93 Composite

My 92 coated/painted valve covers are a mess, flaking, cracked finish, etc. Picked up a set of 93 Composite covers as a replacement, lighter, quieter, and no finish issues.

I know I will need to get a breather hose for the 93 covers, as the vent hole changed location. What other parts do I need to obtain in order to complete the conversion?

You'll need an alternator bracket (or shim up your old one, which can look ghetto if not done correctly).
