Has anyone done this? What modifications had to be done for fitment? I think oil gets sucked in from under the bathtub gasket and it shows on the plugs! With a plate and some GOOD gaskets,should burn much cleaner!

Thanks Bill,but I'd rather not weld it to a manifold..I'd prefer using a bead of silicone in the gap between the head surface! Hi,Bob! Who is AJ? can you contact him for info on what he had to do? Thanks a bunch!

We did it on one of our customer's 500's in his Valiant. Sorry i don't have any pictures on me, but we made it from 1/4" aluminum, and then planed the edges if memory serves me correctly. It works great! Geez, maybe I should start manufacturing valley plates! haha!

I use a Hughes 2 piece valley plate and it took a few tries to get it to seal up,It never leaked in the center but took a few times to get it right on the head sides.The Right Stuff is what I used,and these were stealth heads.
