any good valve covers for my 402
I put aluminum roller rockers and had to trim the baffles under my valve covers, is there any covers out there that existe that would clear my rockers and have a good baffling system so that i don't get any oil in my intake systeme.

Did you at least try to look around on your own or just decided leave it up to LS1Tech to spoon feed you?
Take a look at the GMPP valve covers or the Proform valve covers. Both have decent baffling and are taller than stock while still fitting in an Fbody. They run between $200-350 depending on which ones you go with. You could also use spacers with the stock valve covers for a more modest budget.

Second, don't act like you weren't being a smartass with your second post. You didn't get any responses to your question, so you guess there are no better valve covers? If you weren't being a smartass, then you really are just completely leaving it up to the forum for information. I found my valve covers on my own research. Take just one look at the GMPP or Proform valve covers and you can clearly see at least an inch of height over the stock valve covers.
Lastly, you are welcome.

French is my first language, i am doing my best in english and not using any grammar correction program. my spelling i can improve like other people's personality could also need improvement. is that the way you would treat people in person? don't see why in the first place he found the thread offencive and to take time to reply negatively, should have just click return to next question.
still would like some feedback about valve cover's since i am doing the springs this winter in my Igloo garage.

for the baffles, yes that is what i tought, i did not find any info about improved baffeling, i kno now that on the newer 5.3 litre trucks that there is a tsb out to change the valve covers as part of the solution if the customers has complaint about excessive oil consuption
not sure these covers would fit my 402(stock ls1 covers), also not sure if my rockers would clear the baffles on these newer covers.
