Yes they do, complete with everything minus the gaskets.
Also, the sale is for plain valve covers for $299.99 and blue covers for $399.99.

Running Pro-1 heads and CMI Headers from my HP500 EFI, the Valve covers look great but cant get them off with out removing the studes, should I drill the hole and just use bolts or find a way to fasten the "wing nut" to the stud, have you come across this issue.

No sir I am sorry to say these valve covers will only accommodate shaft mount style roller rockers. They will also accommodate a narrow body style stainless roller rocker arm like available from Crower cams or Comp Cams. The real killer to the deal is old conventional stud girdles and poly locks they do not represent enough height to work.

The 500 EFI OEM header is very tight compared to standard CMI elbow tops. The stud should be attached to the wing nut. Is the wing nut coming off without the stud?

Yes, I assumed normal operation was to remove the wing nut and lift the valve covers off the studs, how do I attach the wing nut to the studs, is their a problem with just drilling the holes slightly larger and using stainless bolts. By the way they do look great and have no leaks, will post pic's
