I went with the trick flow black valve covers for mine. I haven't gotten the engine together yet, so cant say how they are. They seem to be well made though. I have read that on the cast aluminum valve covers that they are stiff enough not to need that third bolt on the top, although these trick flows have the third bolt hole.
