Tom You kidding? They are the ones doing the 4 bolt main buick...if the valve covers don't clear roller rockers, I gaurantee the block will project will crash & burn...And I don't believe that will happen. :TU:
I quess its kinda hard to get a real idea from the pictures how tall they are, It is hard to believe they would go through the trouble to make them and not clear after market valve trains. The more I look at them the more I kinda like the look of them. Tom
Those pictures are sooooo bad I won't look at them until I see them in person. My guess is the camera was on manual focus, but the taker thought it was on auto.o No:
Fit For those in ??? That cover will fit rollers. The proto type cover was sent to us and we check it against iron stg1 aluminum stg 1,2,3's with both shaft and individual shafts. If you have any concern about the builder just go pick up an Indy head catalog and you will see his work he did the design work on most all of the products in there plus helped on the world products big block Chevy. I think it was the world block it may have been the dart I don't recall. The covers are awesome the have no names all over them and they look cool we have sold every set we had we have more on order right now. If you are interested in a set call Finishline Motorsports. We had a couple sets at Cecil County and sold a set there. The people I spoke with their thought they were awesome.
If it is Indy Cylinder head doing this I can vouch for their work. Back in the days when I was a head porter we sent them a 1400hp 747cid BBC with Dart Big Chief head that dropped a valve in at 7000rpms the combustion chamber was demolished but Indy fixed it where you could never tell it happened. They also make some great Mopar heads.
Jeff I have to say I don't know that I will look tomarrow and see if I can put a set on one of our gs with air. Iw ill let you know. The price will be 149.00 and that does include all hardware needed to do the install. If you call jeff at Finishline there just might be a intro offer for them right now but I cannot give you numbers on the board.:Brow: . Just give him a call. Indy cylinder head is not doing them but the designer that has done most of there product line went out on his own and is doing it.
Saw Ronnie Sox about one month ago with one of his old Cudas and it had Indy heads on the Race Hemi with a fabed, welded high rise intake manifold. Ronnie was the King for a long time.
I for one like the looks of these covers.Even with the less than flattering pictures they are the only ones I have seen that look as good as stockers(other than the modified TA's from JW).I normally like paint but these would look great with a super polish job if they are not too porous.Sure is a lot nicer than crackle black or welded up sheet metal.Rod
FYI... On all the TA aluminum heads, the valve cover rail has been raised.. so with anything less than a .700 lift roller cam, even the stock covers will now fit with Roller Rockers.. JW
Jeff I'm truly sorryt I forgot about it I got wrapped up in a set of STG1 Aluminums from ta and never did it I will be out there this sunday. Opening day of deer season is tomarrow so no chance then and it might be tough sunday but I will try. Sorry once again
Hey Bob. Don't worry about it. I just appreciate you taking your time to do it. Whenever you get to it let me know. Good luck this weekend. If those TA heads are causing you problems you can just send them to me and I will bear the burden. Thanks, Jeff
