Valve cover clearance issue

[dbeeson7]

Hi guys, new to the board and about 6 months late it looks like, given all the info I have found here. My question is what valve covers will work with a holley systemax intake? I have a 95 gt just had a 331 built with all forged internals, trick flow heads, 1.6 roller rockers e-303 cam, and the systemax intake. I have tall aluminun motor sport valve covers and the 1" spacer for the manifold and the egr bracket hits. I tried bbk valve covers for a fox body and the alternater hits. What combo are you guys running to make it all fit? Any help would be great.

I have a 1" spacer with 3 gaskets sealed together to fit over my FMS tall valve covers. I grinded away a small part on the alternator to get the valve covers to fit, do a search on here for pics. I ditched the EGR so thats not in the way.

Their chrome VC's are only $80 and are designed to be taller than stock and fit under aftermarket intakes.
