I have my new clear top valve cover mounted up on the Trick Flow heads for the next round of dyno testing. Andy do those only fit with a non conventional distributor location?

Andy, how is the clear top going to be sealed to the rest of the valve cover? I can't tell if you have some sort of gasket in there and don't see any signs of an o-ring or groove.
I will/would be interesting to see in there while the engine ran.

Thanks for the explanation. Being able to see the valve train while running to check for proper oiling and to easily inspect it while not running makes a lot of sense to me. Especially on new engines and parts when things might need some sorting out and extra monitoring. I'll get some gaskets made for it. I also have a stainless steel beauty ring that goes on the top so the bolts aren't riding on the polycarb.

No, brand new build. Have done recent builds very similar but with cleaned up Victor heads and solid/hydraulic flat tappets.

I've heard that the low deck intake will be available by the end of the month. I'll get one on the dyno as soon as it shows up. The RB intake is available now from Summit but I haven't bought one since I don't have a standard port RB engine to use it on. Andy, I got my low deck TF intake in yesterday. Ordered last week. Still have a month or so wait on the heads, but the intakes are available.

I'm curious about the ported m1, I noticed the other day the ports are pretty bad from one side of the intake to the other. I compared it to some edlebrocks and as much as people complain about them the eddys were much better. I'm bummed out, when I received my tf heads I opened one box looked at it and put them on the shelf. Since my rods were backordered I couldn't do much. The other day I opened both to check gaskets on the intake ports and comparee to some intakes. One of my heads was damaged before packing. The boxes are perfect. I have to call and see what can be done.

I have my new clear top valve cover mounted up on the Trick Flow heads for the next round of dyno testing. I would really like to see a video of those clear valve covers on a running engine. Is this something that can stay on there all the time or just for testing or dyno work? Would they hold up on a street car? Thanks for the input Jerry
