Yes mr0077, I thought about where would you put the plate a while after I posted. Another thing a rev kit does is keeps the lifters in their place if you bend a pushrod. They're usually only used with roller lifters, and with solid rollers they keep the lifter on the cam so the lifter doesn't bounce. It just happens I do run a Tunnel Wedge, but even on that, the center cover is screwed on from the bottom. Well, it was just a thought...
Thanks for your replies,

Personally, I think this whole thread is part of a scam, but if not, you would want this in order to use the PSE rev kit currently being (in my opinion) shilled shamelessly on ebay:



If dealing with a valley plate that screws in from the bottom on a tunnelwedge is just too too much trouble for someone mounting a rev kit on an FE.

OR, you would simply wait for Blue Thunder to release their FE/Yates heads, which would have the extended runners that would more easily allow you to use a rev kit, from either a BBC or BBmopar, both of which have similiar bore spacings, and which, from a rev-kit perspective, use the same sort of springs over the lifters.
