Default PML Valve Covers for a ZZ6?

Can anyone tell me if valve covers for a ZZ4 engine will work on a ZZ6 engine? I really like the ones at PML and they show them on a ZZ4 in a '64 Vette.

For a company that is praised for their customer service in other threads here they have been pretty unhelpful in answering that question. I'm mainly worried about the height for a rocker roller engine.

External height is 2.83" and internal height is 2.24". I'd feel most comfortable hearing if someone had actually tried them.

The ZZ4 and the ZZ6 use the same camshaft thus have the same amount of lift, if that helps in answering your question. The best thing to do would be to remove a valve cover and measure your clearances.

I recently bought a set of #11026 if you click on 'dimensions' you get a drawing showing smaller measurements.

Look up #11401 ( your second link) and you get larger measurements.

One of those drawings does not seem correct.

Call them and post back their answer.
