L92 Valve Covers

I am sure this has been discussed.. I haven't found anything on it. What Valve Covers will work on a L92 Head. I got a good deal on a pair of LS6 Covers, looking into them..

I think you can modify the baffles in the centerbolt valve covers.

This is what I did for the L92's.

Are those valve covers baffled for the breathers?

Later LS2 covers work also. It seems the driver's side is ok and early LS1s have the baffles that hit on the pass (fill) side.
