Small block valve cover clearance??

Thank you Goldmember.....Not Edelbrock Valve covers.
I prefer to deal with people here who are kind enough to share experiences and a fix if there is one.

They have. I've done it myself for years and it works well. All you have to do is grind the vertical lip off for the length of the intake runners, just like in the picture Gold Member and Moderator @toolmanmike was most generous enough to share. And got no response. No thank you, kiss my foot, or nuthin. He nor anyone else on here gets paid to help people, yet, somehow, those people seem to get stepped on, crapped on, ignored and treated the worst.

I tell you what. I'm just bout done with throwin helping hand after helping hand out, only to be met with nuthin.....or a smartass answer. And yeah, I'm colorful sometimes and like to poke with the stick, but I always give helpful answers and the one thing people seem to gravitate towards is my colorful comment, rather than the help. Makes me shake my head in disbelief at the amount of total snowflakes are in this world today. You've gotten lots of help here in this thread, but give somebody a smartass answer back. "Mr Gold member"? Seriously? Without Gold Members, there wouldn't be a site for you to come get all the free help you want and then turn around and smart people off. He was basically asking you what you had so he might could give even more help. I'm writing your username down on my "no respond list" and will let you go down for the frikkin third time before I ever respond to the likes of you again. I feel sorry for people anyway who cannot figure out a simple problem like this on their own. How DO you tie your shoes every day?
