The stock 5.0 valve covers are just not cutting it. I had the bbk's on my old K/B 95' gt. They looked good but I want the comp polymer blue valve covers but I can't find them anywhere.

What do you have and if you have pics, lets see em'.

Thanks,
Ben

I have the Ford Racing tall polished valve covers. They look great but I had to have a 1" AND a 3/8 spacer between my upper and lower intakes to be able to use them. I would post a pic but they are buried under that white powder coated GT40 so they are hard to see.

Same boat here. I have the tall FR valve covers, but w/the red striping. I too have to run a 1" and a 1/4" spacer due to the Holley Systemax intake. If anyone wants to switch so I can get rid of this 1/4" spacer let me know. I do have 1.6 RR's on the heads. Stock Ford covers wouldn't work.

FRPP chromed stockers. I'm using a Fel-Pro thick gasket and my 1.6 rollers work just fine.

I have the fox covers, I had to grind out some of the insides to fit the rockers/springs.

Engine Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
