Valve Cover Conversion Has anyone installed Billet Specialties hidden coil valve cover conversion kit with a Whipple supercharger? http://www.billetspecialties.com/ls-...nversion-kit-/
I want to hide the coils and have the option to pick from a large assortment of SBC valve covers. Not sure if there would be clearance issues with the blower drive shaft.

The problem with those is: 1- High price, 2- no PCV baffles, 3- no fresh air in barb, 4- no vacuum barb. You would be better off with a cover for the OE valve cover like the Edelbrock coil covers. There will be no clearance issues with them.

Holley makes one that is much cheaper and it has PCV barbs that will work with VCs that have baffle ports so I can run a dual catch can setup like the one described on this page: https://www.superchargerforums.com/t...re-blown.2472/

I bought those Holley covers and they pulled the oil out of the crankcase and I sold them... Many people have had problems with them and go back to OE covers: https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...nsumption.html
