Default Maggie 2650R Valve Covers?

Good Afternoon family. I am planning on upgrading my supercharger soon to the Magnuson 2650R. From my understanding the valve covers need to be either modified or replaced. What are most people doing? If you are replacing your valve covers, what brand are you using?

Thank you for the pics. Are you glad you upgraded your supercharger?

Honestly it's just a show piece unless you push a lot of power. Depending on what you use it for the stock blower will be faster up to like 850whp. For a track car though it works well.

We are about to get 100% confirmation with the TVS2650 shortly, but I'm very confident they will work.

The Speed Engineering is what I ran on my 16 Camaro with 2650. The Hardings look pretty awesome also.

Jason's valve covers actually look like they're very high quality. That goes a long way in my book. These are high on my list of things to get.

Thank you very much. We put a lot of effort into the design and manufacturing. Also, they are machined right here in Michigan!

Before I bought my Speed Engineering I ran the modified stock valve covers. Pretty easy fix and explained in the Magnuson instructions and basically it just removing some of the coil bolt mounts and a bracket that moves the coils down a couple inches.

There is no welding for anything on the valve covers. The oil cap comes with it.

I bought Speed Engineering black powder coating. I also bought the plug wires. Good quality finish.
