These look awesome. Will these fit a 351W, or do I have to use the "tall" valve covers? I would love to switch mine out, but I don't think they will clear my roller rockers.

Depending on the brand of heads and rollers you are using they will clear without anything other than thick gaskets. Some applications will require aluminum spacers or double thick gaskets.
I am using World Products heads and Crower stainless rollers and have no problem with clearance, I use 5/16 thick Felpro cork/lam gasket. Each application is a little different. These take a good bit of time to make them nice.

Rick - Awesome.
Now if I could only convince my banker(wife) on Weber lookalike fi setup. With those valve covers I'd be as they say "sittin' in tall cotton"--very nice.

WOW! Those would look really great when/if I rebuild the 289 hi-po. But what would I do with the stroker in there now? Look for another hole to fill?

Rick,
Great looking covers. Received mine yesterday and they fit and look great. The extra pipes you added for the puke tank in the kirkham will work just fine.
Thanks again and I will try and post some pics later.
Bob
