Did you mention those problems to him?  While valve cover interference would bother me, you're not trying to look stock with a cast valley cover.


Lawrenceville, GA

I agree there should be more clearance between the valley cover and thermostat housing, called John he said shouldn't be a problem. I didn't grind mine. will see as time goes on if there will be problem

I just put one of Johns valley covers on, it cleared the thermostat housing, but as stated before the oil filler tube is at the wrong angle and with the alum T Bird valve covers the orginal push on cap doesn't fit, its even too small for the tube, I'm not sure what I'll do about it.
