*NOTE-
Anyone who say's LT4 Valve covers don't need to be modified for roller rockers w/ guide plates is lying. The gap between the guide plate and the heads is way too narrow. There is no way the center supports will go on without hitting, plus that half circle support wont clear the guide plate and heads. However, its not that bad to modify. Just takes a lot of time grinding and cutting away. However, this is a great mod to quite down the valve train & reduce false knock! I can hardly hear my rockers ticking. Also, note that I had to get rid of my LG Motorsport breather because it's too small to fit in the LT4's hole.
Parts-
* Needed (6) 6mm X 35 mm hex head screws (for wire looms). Price $0.59/each.
