LA valve covers

I am running eddys
on my eddys, I just happen to notice that the top of the gaskets,area around the bolt holes,actually run down into the area where the millwork for the valve covers ends. If you lay the gasket down, you'll see that the gasket is beng held up off of the machined area by the unmilled area heading towards the rocker stand. All I had to do was take the old tin snips and trim the interior side of the gaskets around the top two bolt holes and they fit perfect. Hope this helps you out, Mike
