Default Do the Yella Terras Clear the 98 Valve Covers?

If not, is there an easy fix like valve cover spacers?

I believe you will have to do a little grinding on the valve cover to get them to fit on a 98. This is a picture I saved after someone posted on what needed to be done to get them to work on a 98.

Thanks for the picture.It's not as bad as I thought. A valve cover spacer would be easier though. Does anybody make a spacer?

I don’t think a spacer will help (could be wrong) because of the design of the 98 head. The meat that you’re going to grind around the fastener would probably be duplicated on the spacer.

You can get our 1/2" spacer at Scoggin. After the PRI show Yella Terra contacted us and our first shippment of spacers is going to them. We are wholesale only so you would have to go through a dealer.
