tall valve covers for 455
Hi guys, I'm looking for some nice looking valve covers to dress-up my 455. I have roller rockers, so I need tall covers. It seems selection is limited, other then chrome ones or not so nice looking ones...what have you guys used? Thanks!

These. I like them. Makes the engine "look" larger after I installed them. They can also be polished or painted. You don't need tall covers to clear roller rockers. Add another gasket or install aluminum shims 3/8" available on ebay. Like has been said before, it's not the rockers but the locks that hit.

No. That's a 9" booster and its still close. I just pulled the master cylinder forward without un hooking it and removed the booster. It only takes 15 minutes to do. Of course everything is new, so I only have to crack the nuts loose on everything and they spin right off.
