lots of people over on the lt1 side use the polished ebay valve covers, and I don't remember anyone complaining about them.

They complain more about Canton than ebay.

Who makes them? i have some that i got from a local shop and they look EXACTLY like all the ones in the ebay pics. but they did not get them off ebay. the box they came in have a "BIG END performance products" sticker on it. i have not put these on my car yet but i did just go out and put them on the my stock heads (i have them hanging on the wall in the garage for decoration) and they fit just fine. doesn't appear to be any gaps or anything and seem to be sealed well. all tho it may be different once they are on the car and you start the engine...

a little more info would be nice in you post besides they don't work don't use them the same person makes them all..

My Ebay valve covers did not work either. They were too tall to fit under fuel lines, or alternator bracket. They were not set up to run PCV or any other hose connections.
