I have no idea where your opinion came from, not to mention he didnt ask for it.
I like sheet metal valve covers... the only problem is with them leaking if not made right.

actually they're not bad. they look all bumpy cause they're not shined up good. they got alot of grease smeared on them right now. when they are cleaned up they look sweet to me and they dont leak and they clear my roller rockers nicely. plus the -10 fitting lets me remote mount 2 air breathers. instead of having them right on the valve cover. i can move them to the firewall or fenderwell. which ever i prefer.


will...
