Big Block short valve covers

[mroth]

Does anyone know of any short valve covers for a chevy that is chromed or highly polished that will fit roller rockers and not have the wire loom supports supports on them? I have found only 2 and they both have the bevelled edge on the back to clear the power booster brake. Only problem is they are only making one casting therefore you get the identical valve cover for the passenger side with the bevelled edge in the front now which looks funky. I can consider going with a smaller diameter power brake booster and go with the tall valve covers which look really good but that means throwing away another couple hundred dollars that I paid for the chromed power booster that I have now.

Check on the internet for marine valve cover's. I have a set of Mercury Marine valve covers on a 70 chevelle with roller rocker's and a 11" brake booster, they are not chrome but can be plated.

Another option if you really like the valve covers you have is to go with a valve cover spacer. Something like http://www.ansenusa.com/shopdisplayp...38&cat=Spacers but cost about what another pair of covers would run. I just saw these after putting new Dart heads on my 502 with roller rockers and the stock crate motor valve covers wouldn't clear the poly-locks. I opted to go with different valve covers instead.

As wayne70 mentioned, check the marine covers. I used these from Imco: http://imcomarine.com/ca_store/index...roducts_id=491

Try using a thick cork valve cover gasket.

I had bought a set that was like the ones from Brett's tdperformance link from Summit. The chrome was very poor quality and I returned them. I like the selection from the marine valve covers seem nice. I will check into them more. Thanks for all the comments.
