can you make valve cover spacers 1/2 for B1 heads ? Does anyone on here know who makes B1 valve covers (cast or fabricated) that fit with out welding and grinding for the distributor curves? I've tried calling Jeff Johnson at Billet fabrications with no response so far

Initially I had both style sets of B1 cast design valve covers, and ended up using custom fabricated valve covers on my B1 Original head motor. The fabricated covers were made by a vendor Best Machine was using at the time, but I don't remember the name. They were quality valve covers. Call Chuck at Best Machine for fabricated valve covers, I'm sure he can get you taken care of, or Koffel's Place or Brodix direct for the B1 logo cast valve covers, or Indy for their smooth surface (no Indy logo) cast big block valve covers. Depending on which distributor and rocker system you're using, might require slight modification to the valve covers. I also ran an offset distributor.
All the aforementioned will fit B1 BS, B1 Original, B1 MC, Indy, and factory stock Mopar cast iron big block heads.
The billet covers Andy is showing here look sweet also!

can you make valve cover spacers 1/2 for B1 heads ? I can LA360, can you make a set for a small block? I have Trick Flow heads. Sorry I missed this post. I will make some for one of my own engines at some point, but not any time soon. Too busy with my 9-5 job and have a couple of other projects on the go at the moment. When I do, I will probably make a few pairs.
