I had a leaky stamped steel valve cover, so used it as an opportunity to get some Chevy LT-1 7-rib cast aluminum ones. GM Performance P/Ns 474207 & 474208. Fel-Pro VS 12869 T gaskets. 1-1/2 x 20" stainless bolts cut down to 1-1/4" did the trick. Bolted on this evening. Fancy for a farm truck, but I should pick up a few HP with these valve covers, yes?

That's a Mr. Gasket fuel 1-6 psi regulator on the fuel line (P/N 9710). The Edelbrock 1405 can handle no more than 4-5 psi, otherwise I get a very strong gas smell.
