Default Aftermarket Valve covers for F body

I havent been posting in these sections for a LONG time!

But I was wondering if anyone can link me to a good company that sells Aftermarket valve covers for a F body... I would like the valve covers to have at least as much clearance as stock 241 head valve covers, with the addition if BREATHERS!


I have a LS2 stroker on my 2002 Camaro and it creates so much pressure that I always am leaking oil. I know it is pushing oil through my valve cover gaskets (with the possibility of a couple other places) even though I replaced the gaskets 2 times already. I already have a catch can and YES it is routed correctly. at this point I know I need to use an aftermarket valve cover with BREATHERS on it..

So if anyone could help me, id appreciate it..

I have the Noonan Race Engineering and I really am pleased, I got mine off of Granatelli Motorsports and afterwards had them powdercoated red. Noonan Race Engineering is a vender here and all but they are in Australia and Noonan emailed me then when I ask about there covers and they said Granitelli was a distributor of theres in America. I am sure all the others above are I am sure very good covers but just liked the way these looked myself, just preferance like most mods we all do here and around the world, LOL. I have pictures of them on my Fquick page below if you need to see them before make a decision. Good luck on your ride and choice.

There's also the Katech valve covers and coil relocation setup. It's not inexpensive, but looks badass.

Did you get the brackets for the coil packs as well.

PM me some info about them, how much you're asking, as well as some pics if you could.

Spendy as hell...but has everything you should want. They have the same thing without coil mounts that are cheaper.

i just purchased a set of the new Holley covers -black with billet cap, decent price too, under $170 and you dont need to use the ugly coil brackets either the coils mount to the cover angled look pretty nice......
