Small block valve cover clearance??

It doesn't seem to matter much with the younger people, but I'll gladly pay more for a product made in the USA. Showing my age, according to my kids.

I'm definitely instilling that in any of the young people I know....
Since the car will have plenty of aftermarket parts made in China, I thought I'd show off the pride they put in to their American made product.
The quality shows for sure.
