572 Hemi / Is it Worth it?

Really?? Body guy spent his morning checking this out. It is a plastic mock up block that is a touch narrower than the real thing, but with an oem style valve cover, which according to Stage V will clear there rockers, there is plenty of room. There was apparently a large variance on the production line when these cars were built. So take the fender cutting thing with a grain of salt. Only thing you can do is to verify it on your car......And Indy Cylinder Head makes a clearanced valve cover that was designed to clear the shock tower and blower motor, if you have one of the cars that the valve cover does indeed hit.....

unless you stick a real engine in there you wont be able to see.... for what ever reason the mock up blocks arn't quite right in some fashion...

we ONLY use factory valve covers and the issue is that with the good tool steel retainers is that they are bigger in diameter, so thats what causes them to hit the v/c's, not the rockers...

when were done with EVERY car we have less than 1/4" clearance... you have to jack the engine up to take the passenger side valve cover off...

i can get a better pic tomarrow...
