My heads are the 60519 Edelbrock. The HS roller rockers are the 5001. I see someone used the 5016. Someone else says to use 5003. Edelbrock suggest Crane roller rockers.
Wow. So which ones? I'll have to call HS and Edelbrock.
Anyway, my valve covers that came off my 68 455 don't have the notch for the AC. My chrome ones do but both are for passenger side. Not sure how I ended up with 2 passengers and no driver side. I'll probably by new ones.

I've always heard the 5016/5017 for HS. Edelbrock probably owns Crane. I have some purple things from Mondildo from around 2002.
And, I don't think you can get the script tall cast covers anymore.

I don't think the notched covers are available in chrome currently. I would imagine the passenger side is the most important with the notch for the A/C box.
Sounds like someone speaking from experience? I put a 350 Olds in my 79 Cutlass 30 years ago and "modified" my ac box. It turned out to be a good thing. 30 years later I put in a 455 and it right slipped in. No mods necessary.
Valve cover to ac box is not an issue. My 455 bbo fit in my 79 with plenty of room. No mods required. Stock 73 covers. Also fits on the booster side, single or double diaphram just fine.
Car is currently under the pile of snow we got tuesday. I'll see if i can get some pics later today.

Yeah they are. No idea of quality, but they're supposedly repros with the baffles, stock height. $229 per set though. Yeeouch!

They don't show a pic, but they look like these in chrome. These are the plain steel ones they sell.

Good point. I didn't even look at the availability. I know a while back they had them and I just recalled I had seen them at SCU.
