Small block valve cover clearance??

VALVE COVER SPACERS 3/8" SMALL BLOCK MOPAR (318, 340, 360) With GASKETLOK | eBay

These are pricey but I have used them and they work great. I glue the gasket to the spacer so I can reuse them when I adjust valves.

I just got a pair of these. With my intake (Stealth) ground down a lot the valve cover surface on the heads (Speed Master) is below the runners by 3/16" and I'm not going to grind valve covers enough to get them to fit. These spacer work great, now I just have to deal the the fact that the valve cover thread locations on the bottom are off on my heads too. Isn't engine building fun?!
