You're welcome.
14trax used the magnums which I believe have the stamped body with the roller tip. The Crane(Cobra) 1.7 rollers have the bigger aluminum body. I personally dig both the FRPP E-302 valve covers (too tall without the intake spacer) and the '83 finned "powered by Ford" covers which I had polished and cut out the baffles. I also sorta like the stepped aluminum cover that came on late '80's early 90's HO 5.0's. same baffles as the '83 covers.

You can drill any cover for PCV etc.
