Chevy 1987-1998 small block center bolt heads are found on Silverado/Sierra, Suburban, Tahoe, Corvette, Impala SS and Camaro Z28.

These valve covers only use the two outside bolts for assembly. We eliminated two bolts for a cleaner appearance. PML designed these covers so that the top surface features the fins. The design removed two bolts and the PCV/breather/oil fill holes from the top. The sand cast aluminum construction is so much stiffer than stock that you do not need four bolts to apply pressure evenly to the gasket. PCV/breather/oil fill holes may be machined on the side.

Valve covers are a little taller than stock and may accommodate some roller rockers that are not shaft mounted. Stud girdles, shaft roller rocker systems are not going to work with this cover.

Check the dimensions of this cover carefully. (Reference dimensions.) Because of the extra height for roller rockers, some applications may have interference between the valve covers and the air conditioning compressor/power steering bracket and possibly from the body of the alternator. Some customers have removed material from these parts to allow the covers to fit. Please email yourcovers@pmli.com for more information and pictures if you are interested.

Valve covers feature internal cast-in baffles. Click here for picture of inside. A image will open in a separate window.

Optional PCV, Breather, and Oil Fill Holes:

Covers do not come with holes. Two locations on the intake manifold side can optionally be machined for PCV or breather holes. Please call to order if you would like PML to machine these holes. Reference this PDF file for more information about PCV, breather and oil fill.
