Default Second set of Valve cover spacers....

The first set I had purchased were a set of the B & B and they were ok. Here is a pic of the 1" valve cover spacers.

** I believe they are made by S & P
** Come in .5 and 1.00
** Come with new GM gaskets
** NO locator while my .500" set had a locator that made the spacers set too high on the head so I ground it off
** Uses factory bolt spacer with new bolts
** Better finish
** Cheap Cheap Cheap, I think they must have priced them for a mustang market

True, but like the guy said hopefully by March. They appear to be priced reasonable!

. . .but the quality of the work is worth the money? We have only made the 1/2" spacer and ours comes with the locating edge.

Yes, IMO they are quality pieces and I do not want the locator on them. I ground them off of the B & Bs.
