Just as everyone told me, I need aftermarket valve covers with the flange on the inside due to the Harland Sharp rockers I just installed on my stage VI heads. I would like to see all that are available. I know of 3 Indy, 440 source and ProComp, are there any others? Can you all post what you got? Thanks. Here's my old set up

That is not a valve cover. That is a sculpture.

I saw some of these on Sean's Charger and asked him where he got them. They are made by Unique Fabrication..they require some work to use, but they are..well, unique.

What is the issue?

Lots of Mopar racers are using Harland Sharp rockers and I haven't heard of this. I must be living under a rock, or all those guys are running Indy heads ???

The problem is that the top of the rockers come into contact with the side of the valve covers on my Stage VI heads.
Looks like 440 Source covers will do the trick

Indy no-logo covers on Stage VI heads.

BTW, HS rockers wouldn't fit correctly under these valve covers either. I wasn't that impressed w/ the HS stuff and this was the last straw on my decision to find a different brand of rockers.

What exactly did you need to do to get them to fit?

I didn't. See what ToddP posted after me. I couldn't stand the idea of having to grind on the rockers to make 'em fit, and wasn't that impressed w/ the HS stuff anyway. I had two sets of them (1.6 and 1.5) and decided at that point to sell 'em and use something different.
