this is the only plate style cover i would use on a hp small block

I like that one but $70 plus Hughes shipping rate.....

I made my own from a stock magnum one. I do use the thicker Felpro large outter gasket with a smeer of RTV and the fiber one under the bolt area. The 6 holes are drilled out to 3/8 inch. The center of the bolt is also drilled to 1/2 inch inside.
