Not sure if this is a sponser or if any of the sponsers even offer them as this is the only place I found them. Hope this helps.

Thunder Racing now has valvecover spacers for sale. I'm not sure if they are on the website, but they are in stock and ready to ship. Just give one of the salesmen a call.

I guess you guys haven't heard about the Yella Terra Stealth roller rockers? They are pedestal/shaft design and fit with no modification req'd. I put a set of these on when I did my head swap and am extremely impressed with them. They are actually easier to put on than the stockers...no aligning on the stem....only one way to go on. I did use the supplied spacers under the pedestals to get the right lifter loading...the instructions take you in depth through this process and is kinda cool to tweak them for your setup. Best part is the cost...$500 shipped.

has the connection on getting them for a little better price....
One more thing...I have the TR224 and had a fairly noisey drivetrain...after installing these it quietened down a bunch. Horsepower gains are supposed to be a benefit(which is kinda hard for me to get a sotp difference due to head install also)..but just having a quieter engine was worth the money. I should also mention that I went to a double spring also, which probably helped.
