Stock valve covers fit with TW heads?

[95CobraMike]

will my stock valve covers fit on the twisted wedge heads with some TFS 1.6 stud mount rockers under them?

Trick flow says they have a raised lip where the VC sits.. is it enough?

I run stock Fox covers..just had to clearance um a lil where the baffle use to be

My stock valve covers didn't fit on stock heads with pedestal mount roller rockers. I'd say not even close with your set up. If you can find AFM steel chrome valve covers for $74 shipped like most of us did then go for those.

Also
I ran 1.72s on stock heads/VC's with a tall gasket

I have 1.6 Comp Cams Pro Magnum rockers on my TW heads. They fit perfect on the driver side, but on the passenger side I had to hammer the middle ridge of the valve cover a little bit to get them to fit. Based on that and from what I've heard from many professionals, there are some big differences in tolerances between our stamped steel factory valve covers.

well that sucks kinda....... i really like my stock covers cause i custom painted them black silver and red for my paint combo...

So if i need to get diffrent ones, which ones will fit under my intake mani?

 

[95CobraMike]

in the TW manual, it says "the valve cover rails on the trick flow heads have been rasied approximatley .350 in. to provide clearance for roller rocker arm poly locks"

Where did you guys find them for 74 shipped??? best i found was $113

(might be a stupid question but..) what if i double up my VC gasket?

Go with anderson ford motorsports, they are the perfect height for intake and rocker clearance.

 

[95CobraMike]

cheap=stock fox covers

I have Crane Gold rockers, and I'm running fox VCs and a 1/2" intake spacer. However, I'm pretty sure the VCs would work w/o the spacer.

go with fabricated aluminum and save yourself them headache. or AFM is highly talked about but dont use 2 VC gaskets =leaks. trick flows are nice 2

TW VC = $100,

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/5-0-...042968487QQcategoryZ33627QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem = $21. I bought the $21 here on ebay and they are GREAT. No kiding. Just make sure you get the right ones to clear the stud mount. Ask CTman, he has the exact link if this one isn't it.

 

[95CobraMike]

those ones in the link will clear?
