I need some help here guys.
I currently have iron heads on my 440 Mopar with Fabricated Aluminum valve covers.
I have a set of Aluminum INDY SEZ heads on the way (be here on a couple days).
I have been reading up and finding comments that the "angle" on the valve covers bolts (or studs, if used instead) are at a DIFFERENT ANGLE on OEM Iron Heads than the Aluminum heads, such as Edelbrock, INDY, etc.
ALSO.... I have read that some of the aluminum valve covers, either cast or fabricated, don't provide enuf room on the front of the passenger side valve cover to clear an MSD Billet Distributor. CAN ANYONE WHO HAS ALUMINUM HEADS, MSD DIST AND CAST OR FABRICATED VALVE COVERS HELP ME OUT ??? Thanks
