Default Just received my carbon fiber valve covers
Got them from one of our new supporting vendors here http://www.carbonfibervalvecovers.com/carbonvc.htm

Quality is excellent and they look great. There is a height issue for me with the Nelson turbo headers that would not likely be an issue for anyone else. I'll have to space the headers out or mod them to clear.

Thank you John for all the help.

Jody, those look killer. How much clearance do you have without spacers?

none. They will not bolt up to the head completely tight without hitting the covers. Pricing some LSX stainless header flanges now.
