    Default Valve cover options

    What is everyone running for valve covers in their RT? I can’t find many options at all.

    I've learned that pleasing everyone is impossible, but pissing everyone off is a piece of cake.

    If you order the Mopar Performance ones above, just note they are 5-hole designed for the older “LA” blocks. They work, just make sure to use a 5-bolt LA gaskets with them.

    Every once in a while, you can catch these on Ebay.

    I may add on the passenger side the front of the valve cover comes REAL CLOSE to the hot post on the alternator so be sure to disconnect the positive post on the battery first. After the install and tighten down the valve cover the fit is still close but not contacting.

    The Doug Lee covers look nice but a bit pricey.
