I'm running '77 vintage covers with Harland-Sharps, 0.650" lift and standard cork gaskets. One still has the factory bar code on it. I did have to modify the end exhaust rockers but they have surplus material that shouldn't be there anyay. Measure the distance from the flange to the baffles and post it. Cory
77 covers are alot taller than the 69 covers he is dealing with .

Are you running aftermarket heads? This reason why I ask is I was told the golds would hit my sb 273 valve covers and they didn't, but........I'm running E-brock heads.

I have 68-69 BB stock valve covers on my 505" with Stealth heads. They fit fine after hammering the baffles a bit.

I have crane gold rollers on my iron 452 heads with stock 68 covers...no hamma needed! I doubt the eddie heads have a shorter flange than stock!
