I just have a cheap set of stamped aluminum valve covers that I ordered from modern mustang.
I went to the Victor because I shift at 6600 rpm, plus I can remove the valve covers with the upper on. It was a good move for me because my car is a 80% track car and 347's make enough power down low without a long runner intake anyway.
What valve cover gaskets are you using? I am using Earls pressure master gaskets and they are 1/8" thick. If I used some normal gaskets the upper might of fit.
