Very cool man...BUT... looking at those valve covers make me cross-eyed!! Something is up side down!
 
Yes! i know but in the correct position is not space with the alternator and AC compressor, this engine is a magnum of 1993, the heads and poly V belt system is not compatible with that valve covers... next i want change the heads by a indy or edelbrock, i hope than i can put in correcto position... maybe i can modifity the valve covers cuting and welding....

thanks!

Ok, I knew there was a reason for the madness! Have you tried the "Mopar Magnum" black wrinkle valve covers? I don't know if they would solve the clearance problems though, they seem to be lower profile...
