I'll try to get you some pics before the weekend. I have the short ones and still needed a 1 inch spacer to clear them with the intake.

I haven't had a whole lot of luck with the oil filler though. At first I just had an air breather filter stuck in the hole I drilled. Every now and then it would puff some oil out and even blow the breather out and onto the headers. I currently have a custom made filler neck on it, that I made.

I almost got those covers but I didnt want to have to drill the holes so I went with the Ford Racing black powder coated ones. The trick flow ones would have looked great with the Intake though.

Ive heard there are fitment issues w/ these covers especially on the passenger side by the alternator. Ive seen some cars that have them on them and others have said they were a very tight fit. I figured I would try them out I hope there are not any issues when they get put on.

If we ever get our laptop fixed, I'll get some pics for ya. I put the filler neck at the back of the pass. valve cover, and made a custom vac. tube to the intake from some steel tube and rubber hose. If you decide on these and get ready to drill / cut the hole in with a hole saw, be sure to use a size that's 'too small'. My cousin did his with the exact size of the rubber grommet, and his fill tube pops out. I used the size below and my fill tube has a really good press fit.

I'll try and get some pictures too, I used the trick flow oil fill.

My biggest complaint is these ARE NOT baffled (obviously if you are making your own holes), so it will draw oil from the valvecovers and you have to run a baffled grommet. Ever try to fill oil through a baffled gromme? It doesn't work. It's a big PITA to fill oil now

If your're going this route, run a standard grommet with a baffled breather with a hose end and run your intake draw in the stock PCV location.

I have those valve covers and have the TFS oil fillers on each cover. I just can't get into mustangmods.com here at work to post the pics. You might be able to run a search on my name to see if I posted any pictures about 3 years ago when I built this motor.
