[Tigers] Valve cover clearance

[Sandy Ganz]

I would try this, it is cheep and easy. Get a couple of good rubber gaskets (I
got some summit racing branded ones with embedded steel shim) and some 3M
Weatherstrip adhesive and glue a set together might just raise it enough. I
was trying that for some stock chrome ones and it mostly looked like it would
fix the issue. I had to rip out the baffle but I think the double gasket moves
it up a bit as Tim said a no grind solution.

Theo,

With the Twisted wedge heads and the raised rail I was able
to still run the
baffles but had to modify them for the posi lock bolts. It
was easy to do but
I do not know how tough that would be with the stock
valvecover rail height. I
do know they make some thicker heavy rubber gaskets
with a steel shim that may
be a bolt in correction with no grinding. As I
recall the gasket provided a <
inch height.
