Valve Covers for SB
« on: January 30, 2009 - 10:57:36 PM »
Hello all...need some help here.  I put new adj rockers on the 340 we are building.  I tried to put the original Valve covers on and I am concerned about the clearance. I was thinking of putting Mopar Perf ones on, I saw they have wide ones  P4876124 but I do not know how they will fit. Anyone have some expereince here? :clueless:

Thanks!!!
Russ

What rockers?  I had steel adjustables that lived under replacement chrome.  I am currently running the MP ones over Crane Gold Rollers on Edelbrock heads.  They work just fine.

They are the lightest covers you can get, they were cheap and they do the job. What else do you want? They come in Black and red too. Besides, nobody that ever hears my car will mistake it for a stock 318. :grinno:

stock covers should clear them , they clear the iron T/A rockers
