I got a pair from Summit. I was quite surprised that they look very close. Just inspect them good. The first set I ordered was missing one of the bendable wire ties for the right VC. It didn't come off, it was just not there. So I returned them and Summit sent me a second set. The holes were spot on. Put a gasket on it to make sure the holes line up. I only needed the right side but you have to buy the pair. No leaks after painting and installation. I would give it a thumbs up. I would rather have an original one, but most are beat up and 70 covers are harder to find.

Here it is. They are made by Auto Metal Direct. This is for 1970 big block HP version. Looks like AMD website does not list them currently I know several places have them on backorder. Good that Summit still has some in stock.

Not sure what your application is, but they make vc for different year big blocks from 64-71. That is if you like the Stock look.
