Default Valve Covers-Merlin Heads

Trying to find a decent set of Valve covers for Merlin heads. Looked at Eddie Marine, Cp Performance, just did not like the covers. I need covers to clear a Crane Gold Roller set up and need to find with breathers in the covers. Anybody have any suggestions or maybe you have a pair to sell.

Thanks/Sheikman

your stock covers will work if you cut the drippers off and use double thick gaskets......

Stock did not work with the Merlin heads. I cut off all the oil drips on mine and even with two thick gaskets the covers where not tall enough. I put on a set of tall stamped steal covers I had sitting around until I find some that I like.

Kaama
Can you email a picture of the ones you have? I may be interested in one set.
