Stud girdles

I can try if you like ... some say they do ...but the girdles seem awfully high.

R

That sure is purty Ron!

Ron,

Do you have one of those valve covers to try ?
If not, how bout a height measurement.
What heads are you running ?

Mike

They won't fit for sure.
Will

Won't fit, but if you are set on keeping the DT valve covers you can get a set of spacers (up to about 1.25") for around $120 from Summit/Jegs etc.

Julian

Thanks guys,

So if I have the 1.25" spacers, the girdles
will fit ?

Mike

Not sure what they'll fetch Mike but here's a billet set. You can probably call DSC and buy them direct.

Best,
Kelly

I have a set of DT vlave covers and can try them ...last time the question was asked BOSS WRENCH said they would fit ... i dont think so. The heads are a set of C302B's someone spent about 5k on to run a 1400hp alcohol Mustang. I got them cheap because they are old technology but for my use they are fine.

Be advised that the valve cover rails on C302Bs are about 1/4" raised above the pedastal mounts compared to an Iron 4V head. Not much help but some.

Hey Ron, I like C302Bs. In fact they are my head of choice; along with Brodix BF301s which are essentially modern incarnations of same with identical port postions and mounting locations. I'll take all that old tech I can get!

So, I need spacers to raise my DT valve covers. Then have to remove the valve cover baffles for clearance. Then its probably necessary to raise up the fill cap and pcv ? Like grandpa always said "one job makes 3-4 more jobs" Maybe it would be better to use the Yella Terra shaft rockers ? Anyone got a pic of YT shaft rockers installed ?

Thanks, Mike

If you go with Ford Racing they will fit.
