Default Aaron's sheetmetal valve covers
Hi All,

Looking into a set of Aaron's sheetmetal valve covers. Can anyone verify whether or not these will fit under a factory Corvette alternator with stock bracketing? There's not much room for height... I asked Aaron and he didn't know.

Later!

Russ

How about if they don't fit, you can return them and I'll pay shipping costs to get them back to me, and you let me know what needs to be changed (if there even is a fitment issue on your car)

thanks,
Aaron
