    I'm partial to sheetmetal valve covers, but a set of polished TA or Kenne-Bell would be my next choice. I have a set of sheetmetal covers that I haven't used yet. I've heard some people having sealing issues with sheetmetal.

    keith i got a set of aluminum fabricated valve covers on e-bay there real nice for the money .i got them for 115.00, but now there going for 135.00 (buy it now) its still a great deal, the only thing if you run big valve springs you might have to clearance the gasket rail on the bottom side for a little extra clearance. my buddys been running these covers with no leaking problems. we sanded the gasket surface and glued on the gaskets. later john
