Default Holley Valve Covers

Anyone having issues with and eforce and Holley valve covers?

Was looking to install these but have Googled and found several folks with oil consumption problems.

Thanks

They have factory style baffles. Zero reason they should contribute to oil consumption if hooked up correctly.

I believe I read that there were some early ones with no baffles done, but as said above they now have baffled and are no issue.

That was my understanding also and they were somewhat flimsy and tended to leak. All has been rectified and I am very happy with mine. I had to modify the coil bracket used for alternator clearance as it was too small for my OEM coil.
