Funny Clay, I did the same basic stuff to my car. I got tired of the drab looking valve covers so I replaced them with polished aluminium. I also jet hotted the intake as well as the headers.

Sundown,
What did you do with your old valve covers? Want to sell them? I've been looking for a set of those.

Patrick - any comment on the possibility of a quick reference "For Sale" section/tab on this site?
Thanks

Hey John,
sorry, those covers are put up for safe keeping because Phil Remmington has hand signed them. They will go in my glass exhibition box that's destined for the garage when I finish the upgrades..

Bummer. I guess I could order some from ERA. I've been told they stock them.

John,
A guy by the name of Rick Parker over on CC is making some original style FIA valve covers with the double breathers. They look fantastic, do a search there to find the thread. From the two SB Ford engines in my garage I know that roller rockers and screw in studs will cause a clearance issue with these types of covers. Some companies make a spacer which is basically a valve cover gasket shape made from aluminum that is 1/2" tall.
