Valve cover spacers for Gen 3 covers on Gen 2?

[Jance GTS]

I have a set of Gen 3 valve covers that are going on my Gen 2. I know there are a few different valve cover spacers I can get, but which ones would you recommend? I've heard the ones on ebay for $300 are junk? Which ones are you using if you have done the swap and have you had any issues with them?

Thanks!

Thanks for the info! I need to talk to Baz because I think I need 1/2" spacers if I'm not mistaken. I'll let you guys know

I did my Gen II GTS with Gen III covers. They were the 1" billet aluminum spacers.

Thanks again! Always nice to see pictures

What kind of bolts did you use? I want to use some nice looking chrome or stainless ones.

You will need to mod the breather outputs on the Gen 3 covers as they breath out the top and not the front..

Also you will need to mod the way your wire clips work.. I screwed in some threaded bar,put covers over and used SS nuts to secure covers and then pushed wire clips down on the threaded bar (like the Gen 3..

Re-use your Gen 2 gaskets on the heads to spacer as the Gen 3 covers have a seal built in...

The only issue i had was contact with the Roe intake tubes....

I used SS button head allen bolts to dress it up a little...

Does anyone have those valvecover spacers for sale ?
I have looked around but have not found any yet.
I found one that had them but I thought that $700 for the spacers was little overpriced !
Any help would be appreciated !

Or if anyone has a used set for sale.
