Changing valve covers

[mattjw]

I'm putting mopar performance valve covers in my '73 scamp with a 318. Does it matter which side the oil filler, pcv, and crankcase filter inlet end up on, as long as the pcv and crankcase filter are on opposite sides? Thanks

Not really I do believe. Typically the PCV is on the driver side.

Just wondering if you have an aftermarket intake, I'm not sure how they fit with a stock intake. Sometimes covers need to be massaged a little to fit correctly.

Good Call Bad Sport, I had to "massage" my mp valve covers on my 340, I am running a eddy torker. The covers hit the runners on the intake and wouldn't seal. A lot of guys have this issue!

They fit okay, thanks to past advice and gasket cement. I just didn't want to risk moving things that shouldn't be moved. Thanks
