I just checked a set of my buddies 440-1 heads and his indy valve covers fit perfect on my EZ heads.....

440source parts just plain suck for me i guess.....

These are Summit valve covers with the Summit logo milled off. I have had just about every valve cover made for bb Mopars.These fit the best out of all.

I don't recall seeing a Summit brand cast aluminum valve cover before. Are those an older part that is now discontinued? Nice looking covers, just never seen them before.

The Summit covers are heavy cast aluminum that are powder coated silver. I had the logo milled off. They are very good covers vs all of the other I have tried including the high$$ sheet metal covers.

I think they have been discontinued

For my EZ heads, I've tried:
440source - clearance issues with the MSD ProBillet, so never used.
Mopar Performanace cast aluminum - needed trimming for the distributor, but worked fine
Indy no-logo - fit perfect.
