AWh! I didn't even think about that!

Great job on the valve covers. I may do the same on my build.

I know this is an old thread but the lq4 6.0 valve covers fit perfect no modification needed.

Do the lq4 valve covers have more height? I also used my LS1 covers and need something taller with better baffling that will fit the ls3 injectors. Ideas?
