Default Billet valve covers and oil pans

If you can't find what you are looking for, Jeff can make them for you: http://www.billetfab.com/

He makes very nice custom valve covers and pans. He does custom engraving on the covers as an option.

Street and Performace has a decent set. A little pricey but..... http://www.hotrodlane.cc/ Go to online catalog (- not the PDf download). Page 91.
Good Luck.

We did the billet covers for the Holden Efigy LS2, and are now doing the tooling for a production version.
There is a thread on the ls1.com.au forum about them. Do a search on "Harrop".

Saw THESE on Ebay sometime back, and they are still selling them. They are a little taller than factory but not too.

I am running the Harrop 8 butterfly intake . the factory valve covers wont even work . the oil cap is in the way . I them switched sides. now the oil fill is in the rear. but now the breather tubes hit and wont let the intake sit flat . It would be nice to raise up the intake about 1" but i douprt that will be reality . whatever i buy has to be no higher than stock at all !!

We have a billet oil-fill cap that allows for the intake ducts. It is usually part of the installation kit, but we may have some that are not already in a kit.
Contact damian@harrop.com.au and we will sort something out.
