EQ heads-valve cover choice
With a typical cork type gasket the covers edges touch the heads? I had some Moroso LA style covers on the NZ made EQ heads using just one gasket. Granted they (covers) can all vary.
If you have a clearance issue I’d just double up the gaskets. Skim coat of ultra black silicone on one gasket and sandwich them together. Might need longer bolts, if using studs you should still be good. Added benefit of doubling up is added clearance from covers to rocker arms (depending on what rockers you are running)
Best benefit is you get to use those nice valve covers:thumbsup:
