Default Two piece timing covers

This is for my LS3 stroker project. There was a lot of debate about which cam I should go with. I ended up picking one but not sure I'm going to like it. Consequently I've been looking into getting one of those two piece timing covers to make future cam swaps easier.
Anyone using this type of cover? Which brand did you install? And do you like it?
I found 3 so far, one made by Edelbrock, one by Hamburger, and another by QTP. Although I'm having trouble finding a distributer that has the QTP for an LS3.
Are there any others I've missed?
Any suggestions?

I wouldn't use a two piece timing cover, because there are always problems with them.

Got it.
One of those things you know, sounds good at the time, then afterwards not so much?
Thanks for the input Jontall.
