Has any one used these adabtors? They are for heads that use the center bolts, with these adabtors it will let you use the regular style valve covers. i was wanting to know how good they are.

I considered those for my vortechs, untill I found a set of center bolt covers from a 90 capri, a taxi, for $5 cnd from a pick a part. There were lots to choose from in that yard and they even have a re-usable gasket. very solid, can't beat oem quality compared to cheap chromies, they fit on either head and I found that I actualy liked the look of black covers with a red block and aluminum manifold. Just an idea.

There are some good looking alluminum ones made too.
I have heard nothign about the adapters though. Seen them used, but no claims on them or nothing. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350.
